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

Given the potential importance of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) in translational research and regenerative medicine, the aim of the present study was to develop a simple, safe, and cost-effective substrate to expand hPSCs. We report the development of an extracellular matrix (ECM), designated "RoGel," based on conditioned medium (CM) of human fibroblasts under serum- and xeno-free culture conditions. The long-term self-renewal of hPSCs on RoGel was also assessed. The results showed that self-renewal, pluripotency, plating efficiency, and cloning efficiency of hPSCs on this newly developed ECM were similar to those of Matrigel, the conventional mouse-cell line-derived ECM. The cells had the capability to passage mechanically on a cold surface, which resulted in their long-term maintenance with normal karyotype. We have demonstrated that CM-coated plates preserved for 1 year at room temperature maintained the capability of hPSC expansion. This ECM provides an attractive hPSC culture platform for both research and future therapeutic applications.
