Inventing Engineered Organoids for end-stage liver failure patients.
Review in Journal of molecular histology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
End-stage liver disease (ESLD) is a term used clinically in reference to a group of liver diseases with liver transplantation as the choice of treatment. Due to the limitations of liver transplantation, alternative treatments are needed. The use of primary human hepatocytes represents a valid alternative treatment, but the limitations related to hepatocyte quality, viability, function, conservation, and storage need to be overcome. Transplanted hepatocytes have only been followed for 6-9 months. Therefore, long-term causes of failures are not yet established, including rejection, apoptosis, or other causes. Other alternative therapies to replace liver transplantation include plasmapheresis, hemodiafiltration, and artificial livers. Unfortunately, these methods are highly limited due to availability, high cost, anaphylaxis reaction, development-deposition of immune-complexes, and restricted functionality. Liver organoids, which utilize stem cells instead of 'impractical' adult hepatocytes, may be a solution for the development of a complex bioartificial liver. Recent studies have explored the benefits of differentiating mature hepatocytes from stem cells inside a bioreactor. When the use of human-induced Hepatocytes (hiHeps) was investigated in mouse and pig models of liver failure, liver failure markers were decreased, hepatocyte function indicated by albumin synthesis improved, and survival time increased. Bioartificial liver treatment may decrease the infiltration of inflammatory cells into liver tissue by down-regulating pro-inflammatory cytokines.
