From basic biology to engineered therapies: the keratinocyte stem cell playbook.
Review in Frontiers in medical technology, 2026. 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
Keratinocyte stem cells (KSCs) are the principal drivers of epidermal renewal, barrier maintenance, and wound repair. Their ability to alternate between self-renewal and differentiation is orchestrated by tightly integrated extrinsic and intrinsic programs that ensure tissue stability while enabling rapid regeneration after injury. This review synthesizes current understanding of KSC homeostasis through a unified framework of three interdependent "fate locks"-the identity switch (ΔNp63 ↔ Notch/IRF6-KLF4/GRHL3/OVOL), the cell-cycle lock (E2F/MYC ↔ p21/p27-RB), and the mechanotransduction lock (YAP/TAZ ↔ Hippo/LATS). We summarize how niche-derived cues-integrins/ECM, EGFR, Wnt, Notch, Ca
