Human-animal interspecies chimerism via blastocyst complementation: advances, challenges and perspectives: a narrative review.
Review in Stem cell investigation, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
objectiveInterspecific human-animal chimerism via blastocyst complementation provides a promising strategy to generate function human cells, tissues or organs from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), although it is still quite challenging. In this review, we will mainly focus on the recent advances, such as the options of donor hPSCs and the understanding of interspecific chimera barriers, challenges, and perspectives on the efficient generation of human-animal interspecies chimeras.
backgroundhPSCs, including the human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and the human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) hold great promise for regenerative medicine to treat various degenerative diseases. However, although hPSCs can differentiate to all lineage cells in dish, the functionality of these cells is limited, hinting that the
methodsNarrative overview of the literatures reported the recent advances, challenges and perspectives regarding the interspecies chimerism via blastocyst complementation.
conclusionsHuman-animal interspecies chimerism via blastocyst complementation is a valuable method to generate functional human cells, tissues or organs, while there are at least three barriers need to be overcome. Firstly, conventional hPSCs should be converted to possess the chimera competency; secondly, efficient human-animal chimerism are required to robustly generate human derivatives in chimera; thirdly, the discrepancy regarding the developmental regulation network between human and host animals must be eliminated to generate certain human cells, tissues or organs in the interspecies chimeras.
