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

Pluripotent stem cells have the potential to generate embryo models that can recapitulate developmental processes in vitro. Large animals such as pigs may also benefit from stem-cell-based embryo models for improving breeding. Here, we report the generation of blastoids from porcine embryonic stem cells (pESCs). We first develop a culture medium 4FIXY to derive pESCs. We develop a 3D two-step differentiation strategy to generate porcine blastoids from the pESCs. The resulting blastoids exhibit similar morphology, size, cell lineage composition, and single-cell transcriptome characteristics to blastocysts. These porcine blastoids survive and expand for more than two weeks in vitro under two different culture conditions. Large animal blastoids such as those derived from pESCs may enable in vitro modeling of early embryogenesis and improve livestock species' breeding practices.
