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

Human intestinal organoids (HIOs) derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are promising resources for intestinal regenerative therapy as they recapitulate both endodermal and mesodermal components of the intestine. However, due to their hPSC-line-dependent mesenchymal development and spherical morphology, HIOs have limited applicability beyond basic research and development. Here, we demonstrate the incorporation of separately differentiated mesodermal and mid/hindgut cells into assembled spheroids to stabilize mesenchymal growth in HIOs. In parallel, we generate tubular intestinal constructs (assembled human intestinal tubules [a-HITs]) by leveraging the high aggregative property of assembled spheroids. Through rotational culture in a bioreactor, a-HITs self-organize to develop epithelium and supportive mesenchyme. Upon mesenteric transplantation, a-HITs mature into centimeter-scale tubular intestinal tissue with complex architectures. Our aggregation- and suspension-based approach offers basic technology for engineering tubular intestinal tissue from hPSCs, which could be ultimately applied to the generation of the human intestine for clinical application.
