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

Developing models of human kidney tissue in vitro is an important challenge in regenerative nephrology research, given the paucity of novel and effective therapies in kidney disease. However, the de novo generation of kidney tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) is challenging owing to the structural and functional complexity of the organ, as well its developmental origin from two distinct embryologic populations: the metanephric mesenchyme and the ureteric bud (UB). Directed differentiation strategies have been developed to generate kidney organoids containing nephron-like structures; we recently reported an efficient and practical method to generate UB tissues. Here, we describe a detailed step-by-step protocol for differentiation of hPSCs into three-dimensonal UB organoids that exhibit complex morphological development and the capacity to differentiate into functional collecting duct tissues. Over 3 d, hPSCs are induced into PAX2
