Periderm fate and independence of tooth formation are conserved across osteichthyans.
Article in EvoDevo, 2024. 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
backgroundPrevious studies have reported that periderm (the outer ectodermal layer) in zebrafish partially expands into the mouth and pharyngeal pouches, but does not reach the medial endoderm, where the pharyngeal teeth develop. Instead, periderm-like cells, arising independently from the outer periderm, cover prospective tooth-forming epithelia and are crucial for tooth germ initiation. Here we test the hypothesis that restricted expansion of periderm is a teleost-specific character possibly related to the derived way of early embryonic development. To this end, we performed lineage tracing of the periderm in a non-teleost actinopterygian species possessing pharyngeal teeth, the sterlet sturgeon (Acipenser ruthenus), and a sarcopterygian species lacking pharyngeal teeth, the axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum).
resultsIn sturgeon, a stratified ectoderm is firmly established at the end of gastrulation, with minimally a basal ectodermal layer and a surface layer that can be homologized to a periderm. Periderm expands to a limited extent into the mouth and remains restricted to the distal parts of the pouches. It does not reach the medial pharyngeal endoderm, where pharyngeal teeth are located. Thus, periderm in sturgeon covers prospective odontogenic epithelium in the jaw region (oral teeth) but not in the pharyngeal region. In axolotl, like in sturgeon, periderm expansion in the oropharynx is restricted to the distal parts of the opening pouches. Oral teeth in axolotl develop long before mouth opening and possible expansion of the periderm into the mouth cavity.
conclusionsRestricted periderm expansion into the oropharynx appears to be an ancestral feature for osteichthyans, as it is found in sturgeon, zebrafish and axolotl. Periderm behavior does not correlate with presence or absence of oral or pharyngeal teeth, whose induction may depend on 'ectodermalized' endoderm. It is proposed that periderm assists in lumenization of the pouches to create an open gill slit. Comparison of basal and advanced actinopterygians with sarcopterygians (axolotl) shows that different trajectories of embryonic development converge on similar dynamics of the periderm: a restricted expansion into the mouth and prospective gill slits.
