Synergistic effects of FGF-2 and Activin A on early neural differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells.
Article in In vitro cellular & developmental biology. Animal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Neural differentiation is an important target of human embryonic stem cells, which provide a source for cell-based therapy, developmental biology, and pharmaceutical research. Previous studies revealed that inhibition of the bone morphogenetic protein is required for neural induction from human embryonic stem cells. On the contrary, the functions of fibroblast growth factors and Activin/Nodal signaling are controversial. Fibroblast growth factor-2 and Activin/Nodal pathways exert divergent influences on human embryonic stem cell concerning the maintenance of both pluripotency and cellular differentiation. We hypothesized that the combination of fibroblast growth factor-2 and Activin A at various concentrations synergistically exerts diverse effects on cell differentiation. To determine the effects of fibroblast growth factor-2 and Activin A on cellular differentiation into neural lineages, we examined the expression of neural differentiation markers in human embryonic stem cells treated with fibroblast growth factor-2 and/or Activin A at various concentrations in a growth factor-defined serum-free medium in short-term culture. In this study, we provide evidence that fibroblast growth factor-2 and Activin A synergistically regulated the initiation of human embryonic stem cell differentiation into neural cell lineages even though human embryonic stem cells autonomously differentiate into neural cell lineages.
