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

Human cord blood (CB) myeloid progenitor reprogramming to a high-fidelity human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) state can be achieved using non-integrating episomal vectors and stromal signals. These conventional, primed CB-hiPSC lines can subsequently be chemically reverted with high efficiencies to a blastomere-like Tankyrase/PARP Inhibitor-Regulated Naive Stem Cell (TIRN-SC) state with functional totipotency. PARP-regulated TIRN-SCs are human stem cells with high epigenetic plasticity, stable epigenomic imprints, and have greater differentiation potency than conventional, lineage-primed hiPSCs. Here, optimized XF/FF methods are outlined for efficient mesenchymal stroma-activated episomal reprogramming of CD34+ CD33+ CB myeloid progenitors into conventional XF/FF hiPSC. TIRN reversion reproducibly potentiated XF/FF conventional hiPSC to adopt transcriptional, epigenetic, and functional features of cleavage-stage human embryo cells with decreased lineage-primed gene expression. We validated that TIRN-reverted CB-derived XF-hiPSC displayed marked improvement in directed multi-lineage differentiation (including hematovascular lineages) across a broad repertoire of genetically independent backgrounds. These methods serve as a first step for generating cGMP-compliant TIRN-SC lines for clinical-grade HLA-defined 'Universal' donor TIRN-SC (UTIRN-SC) banks. The derivation of UTIRN-SC lines with improved differentiation versatility from CD34+ CD33+ CB progenitors could have a high impact on regenerative medicine. For example, UTIRN-SCs could generate tissue banks of HLA-defined, cryo-preserved cardiac, vascular, and neural donor progenitors for comprehensive multi-lineage "off-the-shelf" cellular therapies.
