1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the prototype of complex autoimmune diseases characterized by the production of autoantibodies which results in widespread immunologic abnormalities and immune complex formation. The underlying etiology remains largely unknown. When progressing toward kidney failure, it is becoming a serious public health problem. Kidney transplantation is a feasible therapy, but significant limitations were existed, including shortage of donor organs and lack of funding. To find an alternative proposal for kidney replacement, the induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) technology was adopted. We identified typical SLE patients. Lentiviral transduction of OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and c-MYC, under feeder conditions, resulted in reprogramming of urine-derived renal tubular cells. We investigated the viability of iPSCs generation from patients with SLE by identification of totipotency and pluripotency. SLE patient renal tubular cells-derived iPSCs exhibited properties of human embryonic stem cells, including morphology, growth properties, alkaline phosphatase, expression of pluripotency, genes and surface markers, and teratoma formation. We demonstrated that generation of SLE-specific iPSCs from urine was not only the first time worldwide, but was feasible and efficient. IPSCs from SLE would provide convenient model to study disease pathogenesis, drugs screening, and gene therapy.
