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

Haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) rely on precisely coordinated metabolic programs to preserve their functionality, adapt to environmental cues, and sustain lifelong haematopoiesis. Here we analyse recent advances in understanding the metabolic landscape of HSCs, emphasizing how their intrinsic bioenergetic programs facilitate quiescence, self-renewal and differentiation. We also summarize the dynamic metabolic interactions with the bone marrow microenvironment, including stromal cells, osteoblasts, endosteal cells and adipose tissue, highlighting how they support proper HSC fate. In addition, we discuss how alterations in metabolic homeostasis in healthy and aged HSCs are linked to haematological disorders, particularly leukaemogenesis. We discuss metabolic dysregulation in leukaemic cells that maintains malignant persistence by mimicking certain intrinsic-extrinsic key HSC metabolic features, while simultaneously activating distinct metabolic pathways to support their growth and survival. Understanding the complex role of metabolism in HSC biology will be essential to advance regenerative medicine and blood cancer prevention strategies.
