Efficient Generation of Pancreatic Progenitor Cells from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Derived from a Non-Invasive and Accessible Tissue Source-The Plucked Hair Follicle.
Article in Cells, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The advent of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has brought about transformative advancements in regenerative medicine, offering novel avenues for disease modeling, drug testing, and cell-based therapies. Patient-specific iPSC-based treatments hold the promise of mitigating immune rejection risks. However, the intricacies and costs of producing autologous therapies present commercial challenges. The hair follicle is a multi-germ layered versatile cell source that can be harvested at any age. It is a rich source of keratinocytes, fibroblasts, multipotent stromal cells, and the newly defined Hair Follicle-Associated Pluripotent Stem Cells (HAP). It can also be obtained non-invasively and transported via regular mail channels, making it the ideal starting material for an autologous biobank. In this study, cryopreserved hair follicle-derived iPSC lines (HF-iPS) were established through integration-free vectors, encompassing a diverse cohort. These genetically stable lines exhibited robust expression of pluripotency markers, and showcased tri-lineage differentiation potential. The HF-iPSCs effectively differentiated into double-positive cKIT
