Each color-coded part of the bar depicts the corresponding cell-source organ by country. The top 12 countries are shown in this graph. c Each study was color-coded by the corresponding cell source organ and displayed from the start year to the (planned) completion year, sorted by start year in chronological order. Shaded column: current year (2018) to 2025. Since 2018, a trial bar displays if the trial is registered. Please note that we could not show if the trial continued or was halted prematurely. Red-dashed column: 2014¨C15. Vertical-striped bar indicates ¡°suspended,¡± ¡°terminated,¡± or ¡°withdrawn¡± stud %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6181982/
