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

Direct lineage reprogramming of glial cells to induced neurons has the potential for restoring brain circuits and function in neuronal disorders and states. We introduce three-dimensional (3D) human glia reprogramming into neurons with a GABAergic interneuron phenotype using stem cell-derived human glia. Single-nucleus RNA sequencing of the converted cells demonstrates distinct neuronal clusters within 2 weeks, including a parvalbumin (PV) cluster with high neuronal maturity and features of chandelier interneurons. A lineage trajectory analysis of the glia-to-neuron conversion reveals a distinct lineage pathway to PV chandelier fate, including various neuronal developmental stages and the establishment of synaptic machinery. This analysis reveals PV fate-important genes that are previously unknown to neural reprogramming with promising functional importance for future derivations. Our data demonstrate successful human glia conversion into interneurons with features of bona fide PV subtype and highlight the reprogramming trajectory with key transitional genes. This advancement holds promise for future human brain cell engineering and repair.
