Effects of embryonic origin, tissue cues and pathological signals on fibroblast diversity in humans.
Review in Nature cell biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Fibroblasts, once perceived as a uniform cell type, are now recognized as a mosaic of distinct populations with specialized roles in tissue homeostasis and pathology. Here we provide a global overview of the expanding compendium of fibroblast cell types and states, their diverse lineage origins and multifaceted functions across various human organs. By integrating insights from developmental biology, lineage tracing and single-cell technologies, we highlight the complex nature of fibroblasts. We delve into their origination from embryonic mesenchyme and tissue-resident populations, elucidating lineage-specific behaviours in response to physiological cues. Furthermore, we highlight the pivotal role of fibroblasts in orchestrating tissue repair, connective tissue remodelling and immune modulation across diverse pathologies. This knowledge is essential to develop novel fibroblast-targeted therapies to restore steady-state fibroblast function and advance regenerative medicine strategies across multiple diseases.
