Efficient Techniques for Comprehensive Sampling of Accessible Tissues in Adult Xenopus.
Article in Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE, 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
Xenopus has long been a pivotal model organism for investigating vertebrate development and disease, offering deep insights into cellular processes and gene function. Despite the wealth of information on embryonic Xenopus, there remains a significant gap in standardized methods for adult tissue sampling, especially for modern approaches like quantitative proteomics. This study introduces a comprehensive protocol for rapid, precise, and efficient sampling of multiple tissues in adult Xenopus. The protocol addresses challenges associated with the subtle anatomical differences compared to other anurans, ensuring reproducibility even for those with limited experience in frog dissection. This protocol is optimized for high-quality biochemical analyses by prioritizing sample freshness. We are facilitating the rapid collection of up to 18 tissues within an hour. Additionally, the methods apply to perfused and unperfused conditions, providing flexibility for a range of experimental needs. This work not only fills a critical methodological gap for Xenopus laevis and tropicalis but also serves as a valuable resource for researchers adapting techniques to similar amphibian models, thereby enhancing the scope and reliability of comparative biological and evolutionary studies.
