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
Hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) are adult stem cells located in the outer root sheath of the follicle bulge with high neural plasticity, which promise a potential for the stem cell therapy for neurological diseases. Hirschsprung's disease (HD) is characterized by the absence of ganglia in the distant bowel. In this study, we elucidated the capacity of HFSCs to differentiate into neuronal cells in the aganglionic colon from embryonic rat. HFSCs were isolated from adult Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and formed spheres that could be passaged. The cultured HFSCs expressed neural crest stem cells (NCSCs) markers such as SOX10, CD34, and nestin, which indicated their neural crest lineage. Subsequent differentiation assays demonstrated that these cells could give rise to neural progeny that expressed neuronal or glial markers. The aganglionic colon from the embryonic intestine was applied as in vitro explant to test the capacity of proliferation and differentiation of HFSCs. The HFSCs expressing GFP or RFP integrated in intestinal explants and maintained proliferative capacity. Moreover, the HFSCs differentiated into Tuj1- or S100β-positive cells in the cultured intestinal explants. The results proposed that the HFSCs might be an alternative source of neural stem cells for the HD therapy.
