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

Human society has been burdened by psychiatric disorders throughout the course of its history. The emergence and rapid advances of human brain organoid technology provide unprecedented opportunities for investigation of potential disease mechanisms and development of targeted or even personalized treatments for various psychiatric disorders. In this review, we summarize recent advances for generating organoids from human pluripotent stem cells to model distinct brain regions and diverse cell types. We also highlight recent progress, discuss limitations, and propose potential improvements in using patient-derived or genetically engineered brain region-specific organoids for investigating various psychiatric disorders.
