Transformative Potential of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Congenital Heart Disease Research and Treatment.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Congenital heart disease (CHD), the most common congenital anomaly, remains a significant lifelong burden despite advancements in medical and surgical interventions. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have emerged as a groundbreaking platform in CHD research, offering patient-specific models to investigate the genetic, epigenetic, and molecular mechanisms driving the disease. Utilizing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, cardiac organoids, and high-throughput screening, iPSCs enable innovative strategies in disease modeling, precision drug discovery, and regenerative therapies. However, clinical translation faces challenges related to immaturity, differentiation variability, large-scale feasibility, and tumorigenicity. Addressing these barriers will require standardized protocols, bioengineering solutions, and interdisciplinary collaboration. This review examines the critical role of iPSCs in advancing CHD research and care, demonstrating their potential to revolutionize treatment through patient-specific, regenerative approaches. By addressing current limitations and advancing iPSC technology, the field is positioned to pave the way for precision-based CHD therapies for this lifelong condition.
