Direct programming of human pluripotent stem cells into endothelial progenitors with SOX17 and FGF2.
Article in Stem cell reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Transcription factors (TFs) are pivotal in guiding stem cell behavior, including their maintenance and differentiation. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we investigated TFs expressed in endothelial progenitors (EPs) derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and identified upregulated expression of SOXF factors SOX7, SOX17, and SOX18 in the EP population. To test whether overexpression of these factors increases differentiation efficiency, we established inducible hPSC lines for each SOXF factor and found only SOX17 overexpression robustly increased the percentage of cells expressing CD34 and vascular endothelial cadherin (VEC). Conversely, SOX17 knockdown via CRISPR-Cas13d significantly compromised EP differentiation. Intriguingly, we discovered SOX17 overexpression alone was sufficient to generate CD34
