1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 elucidate spatiotemporal dynamics of tissue renewal, we developed evProTracer, an enhanced dual-recombinase lineage tracing system for cumulative in vivo labeling of proliferating cells. Robust longitudinal tracing using evProTracer in murine tracheal epithelium revealed near-complete homeostatic turnover (91.6 ± 1.29% epithelial replacement over 25 weeks), while basal cell-specific ​Trp63-evProTracer​ uncovered a dorsally biased proliferation pattern​, contributing 33.88 ± 1.44% of total epithelial renewal over 6 months, with early differentiation bias toward club cells. These data demonstrate that ventral epithelial renewal is primarily mediated by non-basal facultative progenitors, revealing their constitutive activation during homeostasis. This study uncovers spatially stratified renewal hierarchies: dorsal basal stem cell reservoirs versus ventral facultative non-basal progenitors. evProTracer provides a versatile platform for investigating tissue plasticity hierarchies in regenerative organs.
