A human-specific progenitor sub-domain extends neurogenesis and increases motor neuron production.
Article in Nature neuroscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Neurogenesis lasts ~10 times longer in developing humans compared to mice, resulting in a >1,000-fold increase in the number of neurons in the CNS. To identify molecular and cellular mechanisms contributing to this difference, we studied human and mouse motor neurogenesis using a stem cell differentiation system that recapitulates species-specific scales of development. Comparison of human and mouse single-cell gene expression data identified human-specific progenitors characterized by coexpression of NKX2-2 and OLIG2 that give rise to spinal motor neurons. Unlike classical OLIG2
