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
Although adult stem cells may be useful for studying tissue-specific diseases, they cannot be used as a general model for investigating human illnesses given their limited differentiation potential. Multilineage-differentiating stress-enduring (Muse) stem cells, a SSEA3(+) cell population isolated from mesenchymal stromal cells, fat, and skin fibroblasts, may be able to overcome that restriction. The Muse cells present in fibroblast cultures obtained from biopsies of patients' skin may be differentiated into cells of interest for analyzing diseases. We isolated Muse stem cells from patients with an intellectual disability (ID) and mutations in the IQSEC2 gene (i.e., BRAG1 gene) and induced in vitro neuroglial differentiation to study cell commitment and the differentiation of neural lineages. The neuroglial differentiation of Muse cells revealed that IQSEC2 mutations may alter the self-renewal and lineage specification of stem cells. We observed a decrease in the percentage of SOX2 (+) neural stem cells and neural progenitors (i.e., SOX2+ and NESTIN+) in cultures obtained from Muse cells with the mutated IQSEC2 gene. The alteration in the number of stem cells and progenitors produced a bias toward the astrocytes' differentiation. Our research demonstrates that Muse stem cells may represent a new cell-based disease model.
