Asymmetric stem cell division maintains genetic heterogeneity of tissue cells.

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
Within a given tissue, the stem cell niche provides the microenvironment for stem cells suitable for their self-renewal. Conceptually, the niche space constrains the size of a stem-cell pool, as the cells sharing the niche compete for its space. It has been suggested that either neutral- or non-neutral-competition of stem cells changes the clone dynamics of stem cells. Theoretically, if the rate of asymmetric division is high, the stem cell competition is limited, thus suppressing clonal expansion. However, the effects of asymmetric division on clone dynamics have never been experimentally tested. Here, using the
