Purification of Planarian Stem Cells Using a Draq5-Based FACS Approach.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Planarians are flatworms that have the remarkable ability to regenerate entirely new animals. This regenerative ability requires abundant adult stem cells called neoblasts, which are relatively small in size, sensitive to irradiation and the only proliferative cells in the animal. Despite the lack of cell surface markers, fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) protocols have been developed to discriminate and isolate neoblasts, based on DNA content. Here, we describe a protocol that combines staining of far-red DNA dye Draq5, Calcein-AM and DAPI, along with a shortened processing time. This profiling strategy can be used to functionally characterize the neoblast population in pharmacologically-treated or gene knockdown animals. Highly purified neoblasts can be analyzed with downstream assays, such as in situ hybridization and RNA sequencing.
