Analysis of Human Uniparental Embryonic Stem Cells Reveals New Putative Imprinted Loci.
Article in Cell proliferation, 2026. 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
Genomic imprinting, an epigenetic process resulting in parent-specific gene expression, is essential for normal development and growth. Disruption of imprinting leads to various developmental disorders and cancers, yet our understanding of the full repertoire of imprinted genes in humans remains incomplete. Here, we utilised androgenetic, parthenogenetic and biparental human embryonic stem cells and their neural derivatives to identify novel imprinted genes by analysing their methylome and transcriptome profiles. Our analysis revealed 12 novel putative imprinted genes distributed across four distinct loci, with six of them clustered in an uncharacterised imprinted region on chromosome 19. We identified potential imprinting control regions regulating this novel cluster, suggesting a coordinated regulatory mechanism. Notably, these imprinted genes are enriched in cancer-related pathways, with several showing isoform-specific imprinting patterns. Our analysis also revealed consistent DNA methylation aberrations in pluripotent stem cells at specific imprinted loci, highlighting potential epigenetic instability during culturing. These findings contribute to our understanding of genomic imprinting regulation in human development and highlight potential genomic regions for further investigation of imprinting-related disorders.
