Resolving human α versus β cell fate allocation for the generation of stem cell-derived islets.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Stem cell-derived glucagon-(α) and insulin-producing (β) cells allow to engineer in vitro biomimetics of islet of Langerhans, the micro-organ controlling glycemia; however, a knowledge gap in the mechanism by which human stem cell-derived α and β cells are specified persists. Mouse studies postulated that Aristaless Related homeobox (Arx) and Paired box 4 (Pax4) transcription factors cross-inhibit each other in endocrine progenitors to promote α/β fate allocation, respectively. To test this model in human, we combine lineage labelling with single-cell multiomic analysis in our newly generated ARX
