Deletion of the gene encoding H-FABP/MDGI has no overt effects in the mammary gland.
Article in Transgenic research, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Heart fatty acid binding protein (H-FABP) is expressed abundantly in the mammary gland. A number of in vitro studies have shown that H-FABP is functionally indistinguishable from a factor isolated from this organ, termed mammary derived growth inhibitor (MDGI), which specifically inhibits the proliferation of mammary tissue. We have previously shown that over-expression of H-FABP/MDGI in the mammary gland of transgenic mice has no discernable effects on cell proliferation or differentiation. In this report we describe knockout mouse in which the H-FABP/MDGI gene has been specifically disrupted. The mice exhibit no overt phenotype in the mammary gland, and we conclude that this gene does not play a specific role in regulating the normal development or function of this tissue.
