Progenitor targeting by adult stem cells in Ciona homeostasis, injury, and regeneration.
Article in Developmental biology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
In the ascidian Ciona intestinalis, oral siphon amputation activates adult stem cell niches in the branchial sac to divide and dispatch migratory progenitor cells to a regeneration blastema at the site of injury. This study shows that progenitor cells derived from branchial sac stem cell niches have roles in homeostasis, wound repair, and regeneration of the siphons and neural complex (NC). During homeostasis, progenitor cells targeted the pharyngeal stigmata to replace ciliated cells involved in filter feeding. After individual or double siphon amputations, progenitor cells specifically targeted the oral or atrial siphons or both siphons, and were involved in the replacement of siphon circular muscle fibers. After oral siphon wounding, progenitor cells targeted the wound sites, and in some cases a supernumerary siphon was formed, although progenitor cell targeting did not predict the induction of supernumerary siphons. Following NC ablation, progenitor cells specifically targeted the regenerating NC, and supplied the precursors of new brain and neural gland cells. The tissues and organs targeted by branchial sac stem cells exhibited apoptosis during homeostasis and injury. It is concluded that branchial sac progenitor cells are multipotent and show targeting specificity that is correlated with apoptosis during homeostatic growth, tissue repair, and regeneration.
