Stem cell-specific NF-κB is required for stem cell survival and epithelial regeneration upon intestinal damage.
Article in Biology open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Immune signals coordinate the repair of damaged epithelia by intestinal stem cells. However, it is unclear if immune pathways act autonomously within the stem cell to direct the damage response pathway. We consider this an important question, as stem cell dynamics are essential for formation and maintenance of the entire epithelium. We used Drosophila to determine the impact of stem cell-specific loss of NF-κB on tissue regeneration upon chemical injury. We found that loss of NF-κB enhanced cell death, impaired enterocyte renewal and increased mortality. Mechanistically, we showed that inhibition of stem cell apoptosis is essential for NF-κB-dependent maintenance of cell viability and tissue repair. Combined, our data demonstrate that stem cell-intrinsic NF-κB activity is essential for an orderly repair of damaged intestinal epithelia.
