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 acquired immune aplastic anemia (AA), pathogenic cytotoxic Th1 cells are activated and expanded, driving an immune response against the hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) that provokes cell depletion and causes bone marrow failure. However, additional HSPC defects may contribute to hematopoietic failure, reflecting on disease outcomes and response to immunosuppression. Here we derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from peripheral blood (PB) erythroblasts obtained from patients diagnosed with immune AA using non-integrating plasmids to model the disease. Erythroblasts were harvested after hematologic response to immunosuppression was achieved. Patients were screened for germline pathogenic variants in bone marrow failure-related genes and no variant was identified. Reprogramming was equally successful for erythroblasts collected from the three immune AA patients and the three healthy subjects. However, the hematopoietic differentiation potential of AA-iPSCs was significantly reduced both quantitatively and qualitatively as compared to healthy-iPSCs, reliably recapitulating disease: differentiation appeared to be more severely affected in cells from the two patients with partial response as compared to the one patient with complete response. Telomere elongation and the telomerase machinery were preserved during reprogramming and differentiation in all AA-iPSCs. Our results indicate that iPSCs are a reliable platform to model immune AA and recapitulate clinical phenotypes. We propose that the immune attack may cause specific epigenetic changes in the HSPCs that limit adequate proliferation and differentiation.
