Tools and methods for cell ablation and cell inhibition in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Review in Genetics, 2025. 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
To understand the function of cells such as neurons within an organism, it can be instrumental to inhibit cellular function, or to remove the cell (type) from the organism, and thus to observe the consequences on organismic and/or circuit function and animal behavior. A range of approaches and tools were developed and used over the past few decades that act either constitutively or acutely and reversibly, in systemic or local fashion. These approaches make use of either drugs or genetically encoded tools. Also, there are acutely acting inhibitory tools that require an exogenous trigger like light. Here, we give an overview of such methods developed and used in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans.
