Regenerative capacity of human pluripotent stem cell-derived articular chondrocytes in vitro.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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 ideal cell source for articular cartilage repair remains elusive. Using developmentally inspired differentiation protocols, we induced human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) toward articular chondrocytes capable of joint cartilage repair in rodent models, which were distinct from growth plate chondrocytes, fated to be replaced by bone in vivo. Working toward clinical translation, we demonstrated controlled differentiation into chondrocytes by comprehensive gene expression analysis at each step of the differentiation. Articular chondrocytes derived from hPSCs could be expanded several passages in vitro without losing chondrogenic potential. Furthermore, chondrocytes isolated from these articular cartilage tissues had the potential to serially regenerate new articular and growth plate cartilage tissues. Finally, the ability to cryopreserve articular chondrocytes with the desired phenotype is critical for clinical translation and here we report no loss in cell viability or regenerative potential following cryopreservation. These results support the immense potential of hPSC-derived articular chondrocytes as a cell-based therapy for cartilage repair.
