A porcine model of Fanconi anemia.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Although small animal models of Fanconi anemia (FA) are useful, they do not faithfully replicate many of the clinical features seen in FA patients. We reasoned that a porcine model of FA with its similar physiology and a relatively long lifespan would produce a phenotype more similar to human FA. Targeting FANCA in domestic swine resulted in skeletal abnormalities and extreme sensitivity to interstrand DNA cross-linking agents. In addition, FANCA disruption followed by mitomycin C treatment resulted in a > 10-fold increase in chromosomal radials, a finding that is considered diagnostic for human FA. Bone marrow derived, hematopoietic progenitor cells from a FANCA null pig showed a 75% reduction in colony forming activity compared to wild type. Evaluation of steady state hematopoiesis in the peripheral blood revealed the gradual development of red cell macrocytosis and a reduction in circulating neutrophils. Targeting of FANCD2 failed to produce any biallelic animals demonstrating the loss of FANCD2 function is embryonic lethal in pigs. These results indicate that a porcine model of FANCA holds promise for the development of strategies to prevent the development of bone marrow failure and malignancies in patients with FA.
