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

The classical development hierarchy of pancreatic cell fate commitments describes that multipotent progenitors (MPs) first bifurcate into tip cells and trunk cells, and then these cells give rise to acinar cells and endocrine/ductal cells separately. However, lineage tracings reveal that pancreatic progenitors are highly heterogeneous in tip and trunk domains in embryonic pancreas. The progenitor fate commitments from multipotency to unipotency during early pancreas development is insufficiently characterized. In pursuing a mechanistic understanding of the complexity in progenitor fate commitments, we construct a core endogenous network for pancreatic lineage decisions based on genetic regulations and quantified its intrinsic dynamic properties using dynamic modeling. The dynamics reveal a developmental landscape with high complexity that has not been clarified. Not only well-characterized pancreatic cells are reproduced, but also previously unrecognized progenitors-tip progenitor (TiP), trunk progenitor (TrP), later endocrine progenitor (LEP), and acinar progenitors (AciP/AciP2) are predicted. Further analyses show that TrP and LEP mediate endocrine lineage maturation, while TiP, AciP, AciP2 and TrP mediate acinar and ductal lineage maturation. The predicted cell fate commitments are validated by analyzing single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. Significantly, this is the first time that a redefined hierarchy with detailed early pancreatic progenitor fate commitment is obtained.
