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

In order to harness the potential of pluripotent stem cells, we need to understand how to differentiate them to our target cell types. Here, we developed a protocol to differentiate mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to renal progenitors in a step-wise manner. Microarrays were used to track the transcriptional changes at each stage of differentiation and we observed that genes associated with metanephros, ureteric bud, and blood vessel development were significantly upregulated as the cells differentiated towards renal progenitors. Priming the ESCs and optimizing seeding cell density and growth factor concentrations helped improve differentiation efficiency. Organoids were used to determine the developmental potential of the renal progenitor cells. Aggregated renal progenitors gave rise to organoids consisting of LTL+/E-cadherin+ proximal tubules, cytokeratin+ ureteric bud-derived tubules, and extracellular matrix proteins secreted by the cells themselves. Over-expression of key kidney developmental genes,
