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

Although induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have significant implications for overcoming most of the ethical issues associated with embryonic stem cells, several issues related to the use of iPS cells in clinical applications remain unresolved, including the issue of teratoma formation. We previously reported that the induction of induced tissue-specific stem (iTS) cells from the pancreas (iTS-P) or liver (iTS-L) by the transient overexpression of reprogramming factors, combined with tissue-specific selection and the generation of iTS cells, could have important implications for the clinical application of stem cells. At the same time, we also generated "induced fibroblast-like (iF) cells" that were capable of self-renewal, which had a similar morphology to fibroblast cells. In this study, we evaluated iF cells. iF cells are unlikely to show adipogenic/osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, iF cells have the ability to form tumors and behave similarly to pancreatic cancer cells. The technology used in the generation of iPS/iTS cells is also associated with the risk of generating cancer-like cells.
