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

Stepwise pancreatic β-cell differentiation protocols, designed to recapitulate key developmental milestones of pancreatic organogenesis-from definitive endoderm to mature, glucose-responsive β-cells-draw on insights from both rodent and human developmental biology. These protocols consist of three critical stages: the formation of definitive endoderm, the induction of pancreatic progenitors, and the maturation of functional β-cells. Here, we discuss human and rodent embryonic development together with stem-cell differentiation protocols in concert to identify gaps and bottlenecks that limit the practicality and scalability of current protocols. Ultimately, the aim of refining these processes is to produce functional β-cells from pluripotent stem cells to treat, and potentially cure, diabetes.
