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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsHuman intestinal organoids derived from induced pluripotent stem cells have tremendous potential to elucidate the intestinal epithelium's role in health and disease, but it is difficult to directly assay these complex structures. This study sought to make this technology more amenable for study by obtaining epithelial cells from induced pluripotent stem cell-derived human intestinal organoids and incorporating them into small microengineered Chips. We then investigated if these cells within the Chip were polarized, had the 4 major intestinal epithelial subtypes, and were biologically responsive to exogenous stimuli.

methodsEpithelial cells were positively selected from human intestinal organoids and were incorporated into the Chip. The effect of continuous media flow was examined. Immunocytochemistry and

resultsThe optimal cell seeding density and flow rate were established. The continuous administration of flow resulted in the formation of polarized intestinal folds that contained Paneth cells, goblet cells, enterocytes, and enteroendocrine cells along with transit-amplifying and

conclusionsWe demonstrate that the Intestine-Chip is polarized, contains all the intestinal epithelial subtypes, and is biologically responsive to exogenous stimuli. This represents a more amenable platform to use organoid technology and will be highly applicable to personalized medicine and a wide range of gastrointestinal conditions.
