When is a neuron like an epithelial cell.
Review in Developmental biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Neurons and epithelia are viewed as fundamentally different cell types, yet some sensory neurons exhibit hallmarks of epithelial cells. For example, they use tight junctions to form a diffusion barrier continuous with the skin or other epithelia and they exhibit bona fide apical-basal polarity, with an outward-facing apical surface that is biochemically and functionally distinct from their inward-facing basolateral surface. Yet they are unmistakeably neurons with axon-dendrite polarity. Examples include olfactory receptor neurons and photoreceptors. In this review, I highlight how viewing these neurons as specialized epithelial cells informs our understanding of their development and raises intriguing questions about the establishment of apical-basal and axon-dendrite polarity.
