Magnetic bioassembly platforms for establishing craniofacial exocrine gland organoids as aging in vitro models.
Article in PloS one, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
A multitude of aging-related factors and systemic conditions can cause lacrimal gland (LG) or salivary gland (SG) hypofunction leading to degenerative dry eye disease (DED) or dry mouth syndrome, respectively. Currently, there are no effective regenerative therapies that can fully reverse such gland hypofunction due to the lack of reproducible in vitro aging models or organoids required to develop novel treatments for multi-omic profiling. Previously, our research group successful developed three-dimensional (3D) bioassembly nanotechnologies towards the generation of functional exocrine gland organoids via magnetic 3D bioprinting platforms (M3DB). To meet the needs of our aging Asian societies, a next step was taken to design consistent M3DB protocols to engineer LG and SG organoid models with aging molecular and pathological features. Herein, a feasible step-by-step protocol was provided for producing both LG and SG organoids using M3DB platforms. Such protocol provided reproducible outcomes with final organoid products resembling LG or SG native parenchymal epithelial tissues. Both acinar and ductal epithelial compartments were prominent (21 ± 4.32% versus 42 ± 6.72%, respectively), and could be clearly identified in these organoids. Meanwhile, these can be further developed into aging signature models by inducing cellular senescence via chemical mutagenesis. The generation of senescence-like organoids will be our ultimate milestone aiming towards high throughput applications for drug screening and discovery, and for gene therapy investigations to reverse aging.
