Benchmark for Setting ACTH Cell Dosage in Clinical Regenerative Medicine for Post-Operative Hypopituitarism.
Article in Diseases (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesOur objective is to develop hormone-producing pituitary cells that can function in the same manner as the human body and provide more effective treatments than current hormone replacement therapy. We have already established a technique for generating hypothalamic-pituitary organoids using feeder-free human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and demonstrated their effectiveness in vivo through transplantation into hypopituitary mouse models. To prospectively determine the upper limit of transplanting adenohypophyseal cells into humans, we investigated the human maximum secretion capacity of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and growth hormone (GH).
methodsWe analyzed data from 28 patients with pituitary adenomas, among whom 16 evinced no abnormality of ACTH secretion and 12 showed no GH secretion on corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and growth hormone-releasing hormone-2 (GHRP-2) stimulation testing.
resultsThe average ACTH peak value after CRH stimulation tests was 97.2 pg/mL, and the average GH peak value after GHRP-2 stimulation tests was 25.1 ng/mL.
conclusionsThese data will likely serve as benchmarks of ACTH and GH secretion when transplanting cultured cells into humans.
