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

Although methods for generating human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived motor nerve organoids are well established, those for sensory nerve organoids are not. Therefore, this study investigated the feasibility of generating sensory nerve organoids composed of hiPSC-derived sensory neurons using a microfluidic approach. Notably, sensory neuronal axons from neurospheres containing 100,000 cells were unidirectionally elongated to form sensory nerve organoids over 6 mm long axon bundles within 14 days using I-shaped microchannels in microfluidic devices composed of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chips and glass substrates. Additionally, the organoids were successfully cultured for more than 60 days by exchanging the culture medium. The percentage of nuclei located in the distal part of the axon bundles (the region 3-6 mm from the entrance of the microchannel) compared to the total number of cells in the neurosphere was 0.005% for live cells and 0.008% for dead cells. Molecular characterization confirmed the presence of the sensory neuron marker ISL LIM homeobox 1 (ISL1) and the capsaicin receptor transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1). Moreover, capsaicin stimulation activated TRPV1 in organoids, as evidenced by significant calcium ion influx. Conclusively, this study demonstrated the feasibility of long-term organoid culture and the potential applications of sensory nerve organoids in bioengineered nociceptive sensors.
