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

Great strides have been made in pre-clinical research in recent decades using animal models and cell lines. However, traditional models may fail to translate to humans, resulting in substantial failure rates in drug development. Recent three-dimensional organoid models have borne a good resemblance to the architecture, development and function of tissues, especially for organs with complex cell interactions and dynamics such as the lungs. In 2022, the role of organoids as alternative to animal testing was recognised by the US Food and Drug Administration. We searched Medline and ClinicalTrials.gov for studies on the experimental use of lung organoids to model disease pathogenesis and test treatments for paediatric and neonatal respiratory diseases. We comprehensively review the translational value of organoids for paediatric and neonatal respiratory conditions, with current limitations and future expectations, while glancing at other
