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-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are an invaluable resource in both two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) tissue engineering due to their multilineage potential in culture systems. To date, modeling red blood cell (RBC) disorders such as sickle cell disease (SCD) from iPSCs has been challenging due to the tendency for differentiation protocols to produce immature erythrocytes that lack robust β-globin expression and enucleate poorly. Here, we demonstrated an optimized three-stage erythroid differentiation protocol that generates enucleated, β-globin-expressing RBCs from somatically sourced iPSCs, derived from both healthy donors and patients with homozygous SCD. Induced RBCs (iRBCs) present phenotypically as GlyA
