Aging/Risks and conflicting results
Risks and conflicting results
Negative results, model limitations and replication gaps.
Active counterchecks
- Completeness: “regeneration” may mean growth, morphology or function. Incomplete digit regeneration directly challenges blanket claims of perfect restoration.
- Causality: cross-sectional data, aging clocks and human autopsies do not establish intervention benefit.
- Replication: several cohorts in one paper are not automatically independent replication.
- Context: the same signalling axis may act differently by tissue, age and repair phase.
- Long-term risks: uncontrolled growth, altered cell identity and faulty functional integration require safety assessment.
- Publication status: preprints are labelled separately; later runs check retractions and corrections.
