Traumatic injury leads to ovarian cell death and reproductive disturbances in Drosophila melanogaster.
Article in Biology open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Traumatic injury (TI), or global blunt force trauma, can arise from many sources such as car crashes, sports and intimate partner violence. Effects from these injuries impact the whole organism and can lead to many different pathologies, such as inflammation, neurodegeneration, gut dysbiosis, and female reproductive detriments. Drosophila melanogaster has recently emerged as a powerful model to study traumatic injuries due to their high conservation of physiological effects post-trauma and the genetic toolset that they leverage. Previously, we reported female-specific reproductive deficits post mild TI in Drosophila. Here we investigate the effects of more severe trauma on females and found an increased retention of mature eggs and decrease in egg laying. Additionally, severe trauma led to an increase of midstage egg chamber death and formation of melanization, a known marker of immune activation. These studies provide a valuable invertebrate model to understand disturbances to female reproduction post-trauma.
