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

Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) pigs have become a promising large animal model for biomedical research, offering significant advantages over traditional mouse models due to their anatomical, physiological, and genetic similarities to humans. Humanized SCID pig models can potentially improve preclinical research in areas such as cancer immunotherapies, stem cell therapies, and transplantation methods, yet often lack significant lymphocyte development, including evidence of B cell and myeloid cell development. This work aims to increase the extent of humanization of the SCID pig. CRISPR guide RNAs were successfully developed for the RAG2 and IL2RG genes, and a double-knockout cell line (RAG2-/-IL2RG-/Y, RG) was established. Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) was then used to create cloned SCID fetuses, which were injected intraperitoneally with
