Stabilization of hESCs in two distinct substates along the continuum of pluripotency.

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
A detailed understanding of the developmental substates of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) is needed to optimize their use in cell therapy and for modeling early development. Genetic instability and risk of tumorigenicity of primed hPSCs are well documented, but a systematic isogenic comparison between substates has not been performed. We derived four hESC lines in naive human stem cell medium (NHSM) and generated isogenic pairs of NHSM and primed cultures. Through phenotypic, transcriptomic, and methylation profiling, we identified changes that arose during the transition to a primed substate. Although early NHSM cultures displayed naive characteristics, including greater proliferation and clonogenic potential compared with primed cultures, they drifted toward a more primed-like substate over time, including accumulation of genetic abnormalities. Overall, we show that transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling can be used to place human pluripotent cultures along a developmental continuum and may inform their utility for clinical and research applications.
