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

Epigenetic regulation by the SWI/SNF complex is essential for normal self-renewal capacity and pluripotency of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). It has been shown that different subunits of the complex have a distinct role in this regulation. Specifically, the SMARCB1 subunit has been shown to regulate the activity of enhancers in diverse types of cells, including hPSCs. Here, we report the establishment of conditional hPSC lines, enabling control of SMARCB1 expression from complete loss of function to significant overexpression. Using this system, we show that any deviation from normal SMARCB1 expression leads to cell differentiation. We further found that SMARCB1 expression is not required for differentiation of hPSCs into progenitor cells, but rather for later stages of differentiation. Finally, we identify SMARCB1 as a critical player in regulation of cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions in hPSCs and show that this regulation is mediated at least in part by the WNT pathway.
