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

Embryonic hematopoietic cells develop in the fetal liver (FL), surrounded by diverse non-hematopoietic stromal cells. However, the spatial organization and cytokine production patterns of the stroma during FL development remain poorly understood. Here, we characterized and mapped the hematopoietic and stromal cell populations at early (E12.5-14.5) FL stages, revealing that while hepatoblasts were the primary source of hematopoietic growth factors, other stromal cells-including mesenchymal, mesothelial, and endothelial cells-also contributed to this signaling network. Using a dedicated image analysis pipeline, we quantified cell distances to tissue structures and defined neighbor relationships, uncovering that different hematopoietic progenitors exhibit distinct preferences for neighboring stromal cells and show developmental changes in spatial distribution. Notably, our data suggest that the sub-mesothelium region plays a prominent role in early fetal hematopoiesis. This approach offers a valuable tool for studying complex cellular interactions in biological systems, providing new insights into hematopoietic niche organization during development.
