Oogenesis and germinal bed morphology of the brown anole (A. sagrei).
Article in Developmental dynamics : an official publication of the American Association of Anatomists, 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
backgroundThe brown anole is a model species of the genus Anolis, a squamate (encompassing lizards and snakes) group widely studied in evolutionary, behavioral, and developmental biology. Full genome annotation, the establishment of gene editing techniques, and comprehensive description of reproductive tract morphology and embryogenesis in this species have laid the foundation for functional studies. However, analysis of brown anole oogenesis is still required and vital to optimize genome modification, mutant line establishment, and analyses of the evolution of reproductive developmental mechanisms.
resultsHere, we characterize ovary morphology and gametogenesis in the female brown anole, Anolis sagrei, using brightfield imaging, microCT, histology staining, electron microscopy, and confocal imaging. We define 10 stages of oocyte maturation, which commences inside the oogonial nest within the germinal bed and concludes with the mature follicle ready to ovulate based on follicle size, yolk acquisition, and follicular, cellular, and basement membrane architecture.
conclusionsWe describe the complete oogenesis of the brown anole in 10 stages and report that oogenesis is highly conserved within iguanians, a suborder of lizards. With our staging framework, we lay the foundation for functional studies of oogenesis and optimized gene-editing.
