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

Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) are abnormal dilations of the aorta above the diaphragm. Mutations in the ACTA2 gene are among the most common genetic causes of TAA. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) provide a platform for comprehensive biological investigations and the development of tailored medical strategies for this condition. Here, two iPSC lines were generated from TAA patients harboring the ACTA2 mutation, c.773 G > A. Both iPSC lines demonstrated characteristic pluripotent stem cell morphology, expressed core pluripotency markers, maintained normal karyotypes, and possessed the capacity for trilineage differentiation. These cell lines represent a valuable resource for studying the genetic and cellular mechanisms underlying TAA pathogenesis associated with ACTA2 mutations.
