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

CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein beta (C/EBPβ) induces primary v-Abl immortalized mouse B cells to transdifferentiate (BT, B cell transdifferentiation) into granulocyte-macrophage progenitor-like cells (GMPBTs). GMPBTs maintain cytokine-independent self-renewal, lineage choice, and multilineage differentiation. Single-cell transcriptomics demonstrated that GMPBTs comprise a continuum of myelomonopoietic differentiation states that seamlessly fit into state-to-fate maps of normal granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (GMPs). Inactivating v-Abl kinase revealed the dependence on activated CSF2-JAK2-STAT5 signaling. Deleting IRF8 diminished monopoiesis and enhanced granulopoiesis while removing C/EBPβ-abrogated self-renewal and granulopoiesis but permitted macrophage differentiation. The GMPBT culture system is easily scalable to explore the basics of GMP biology and lineage commitment and largely reduces ethically and legislatively debatable, labor-intensive, and costly animal experiments.
