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

Reprogramming of somatic cells like blood cells and fibroblasts to obtain human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) has become a state-of-the-art tool to study human diseases. The self-renewable hiPSCs offer ease of genetic modifications and can be differentiated into any cell type of the human body ranging from hepatocytes, cardiac myocytes, and subtypes of neurons. Dopaminergic (DA) neurons are one such neuronal subtype that is largely present in the midbrain region of the human brain and controls several functions like voluntary movement, reward, addiction, and stress. Loss of DA neurons is associated with one of the most common neurological disorders, Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we describe a small molecule-directed approach for the generation of functionally mature dopaminergic neurons through the differentiation of hiPSCs. Differentiated DA neurons can be used to study their role in (patho)physiology.
