Stem cell models of human embryo implantation and trophoblast invasion.
Review in Current opinion in genetics & development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Stem cell-based embryo models have taken the scientific community by storm as they enable investigation of previously inaccessible stages of human development. Here, we discuss how stem cell-based embryo and placenta models can shine a light on two elusive and intertwined aspects of human development that are critical for successful pregnancy: the implantation of the blastocyst into the endometrium and the subsequent invasion of placental villi deep inside the maternal tissues. Both of these processes are mediated by the trophoblast lineage, which is specified in the preimplantation embryo and can be modeled using naïve pluripotent stem cells. We review how embryo and placenta models built from naïve stem cells can be leveraged to obtain mechanistic insights into human implantation and trophoblast invasion.
