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

Background: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is an adult-onset, fatal neurodegenerative disease, classified as a synucleinopathy along with Parkinson's disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. The etiology of MSA is unknown and the treatment remains symptomatic with limited efficacy. To date most studies have been conducted on genetic mice models, engineered to overexpress α-synuclein (aSyn); and transmission mice models, treated with intracerebral injections of MSA brain extracts or fibrillar aSyn which can be assembled Method: For this purpose, we report the generation of six fully characterized induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) lines, which were reprogrammed from disease-derived skin fibroblasts and represent the two major clinical MSA variants with either predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P) or cerebellar dysfunction (MSA-C). Five of these cases received postmortem neuropathological confirmation of definite MSA diagnosis. Results: The generated iPSC clones meet the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) quality standards for genomic stability and functional pluripotency to ensure experimental reproducibility. None of the clones acquired genetic abnormalities after the reprogramming and the extended culture passage, as evaluated by G-banded karyotyping and digital PCR targeting recurrent iPSC copy number variant hotspots. All the clones expressed pluripotent markers as NANOG, LIN28A and SSEA4 and differentiated efficiently into each of the three embryonic germ layers. Furthermore, we assessed their potential for disease modeling by generating oligodendrocytes (OLs), since the pathologic hallmark of MSA is the aberrant accumulation of aSyn within OLs cytoplasm. We obtained both O4+ oligodendrocyte progenitor cells and MBP+ mature oligodendrocyte cells. Conclusion: We have created a robust and valuable iPSC collection aimed at correlating the
