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

New therapeutic approaches for repairing an injured or degenerating nervous system have accelerated the development of methods to generate populations of neurons derived from various stem cell sources efficiently. Many of these methods require the generation of neurospheres. Here a simple technique is described for creating an array of adherent mouse embryonic stem cell (mESC)-derived neurospheres using a conventional plastic culture dish and a patterning template. mESC-derived neurospheres are confined to circular (4-mm diameter), gel-coated regions within an array. The adherent neurosphere arrays require 3 days to prepare from an mESC source; they can be maintained in 15 μl drops of medium, and exhibit extensive neurite elaboration after 8 days of cultivation. Additionally, the potential of treating the adherent neurospheres in selected drops of an array is demonstrated with a variety of differentiation-inducing reagents and subsequently individually analysing such neurospheres for gene expression, protein levels and morphological development.
