The low-density lipoprotein receptor family: genetics, function, and evolution.
Article in Current atherosclerosis reports, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
With ever increasing sophistication in molecular biological approaches, the low-density lipoprotein receptor supergene family continues to grow rapidly. From the well-defined key role of these receptors in lipoprotein metabolism, the new members move the field into many different and diverse physiologic and developmental areas. We observe an expansion of the functional spectrum of the family members, which is due to 1) the binding to their extracellular domains of more and more components lacking homology to apolipoproteins, and 2) the recently uncovered interaction of the receptors' cytoplasmic tails with adaptor proteins that are part of signaling pathways. As this review attempts to describe, the task of delineation of the evolutionary history of the gene family may be aided by concepts that consider events, both divergent and convergent, within and between the intra- and extracellular domains.
