Experimentally Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition of Human Hair Follicle Stem Cells as a Model of Scarring Alopecia Ex Vivo.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2026. 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
Primary cicatricial alopecia is characterized by a permanent "scarring" alopecia. This condition is characterized by the irreversible loss of hair follicles (HFs) as a result of apoptosis and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of epithelial stem cells localized in the HF bulge.We here report the procedure for experimentally induced EMT in healthy human epidermal stem cells (eSCs) using full-length HF organ culture ex vivo. The present model can be used to recapitulate the complex processes observed in scarring alopecia patient tissues, to further investigate the mechanisms involved in EMT transformation of HFeSCs, and to test substances that could prevent and/or rescue HFeSCs from EMT for the management of scarring alopecias.
