Cells for blastema formation: Lessons from the annelid regenerative model.
Review in Cell and tissue research, 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
Regeneration in many animals involves the formation of blastema, a mass of undifferentiated, proliferating cells. The origin of blastema cells is a key question in regenerative biology. Two major theories are: (1) the migration of lineage-restricted stem cells, supported by studies in salamanders and planaria, and (2) the dedifferentiation of somatic cells at the injury site, which has been observed in newts, mice, zebrafish, and crickets. Because different models support these theories, the generality of either mechanism is unclear. To address this, these theories should be investigated in a wider range of regenerative model animals. To this end, Fujita et al. (2024) studied the regenerative annelid Enchytraeus japonensis and discovered that soxC-expressing cells are crucial for blastema formation. In this review, we introduce an annelid model system for regeneration biology and the roles of soxC-expressing cells during blastema formation.
