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

There is a need to store very large numbers of conventional human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) lines for their off-the-shelf usage in stem cell therapy. Therefore, it is valuable to generate "universal" or "hypoimmunogenic" hPSCs with gene-editing technology by knocking out or in immune-related genes. A few universal or hypoimmunogenic hPSC lines should be enough to store for their off-the-shelf usage. Here, we overview and discuss how to prepare universal or hypoimmunogenic hPSCs and their disadvantages. β2-Microglobulin-knockout hPSCs did not harbour human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-expressing class I cells but rather activated natural killer (NK) cells. To avoid NK cell and macrophage activities, homozygous hPSCs expressing a single allele of an HLA class I molecule, such as HLA-C, were developed. Major HLA class I molecules were knocked out, and PD-L1, HLA-G and CD47 were knocked in hPSCs using CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. These cells escaped activation of not only T cells but also NK cells and macrophages, generating universal hPSCs.
