Blastocyst Complementation: The New Kid on the Xenotransplantation Block.
Review in Xenotransplantation. 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
The transplantation of genetically modified pig organs and tissues is arguably the most promising approach to overcoming the world-wide shortage of organ and tissues for transplantation. The advent of gene editing has seen a resurgence in interest in this approach which has also allowed blastocyst complementation to be explored as an alternative to solving this challenge. Genetic strategies are increasingly being used to explore this possibility and overcome the many scientific hurdles this presents. While blastocyst complementation faces many scientific challenges the ethical questions surrounding this approach are equally important and will need to be addressed at the same time, if this new kid on the xenotransplantation block is to become a reality.
