Leptin signal transduction in the HP75 human pituitary cell line.
Article in Pituitary, 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
Leptin is an adipocyte-derived cytokine with many functions including signaling the status of body energy stores through activation of the leptin receptor (OBR). Activation of the long form of OB-R (OB-Rb) results in JAK2 phosphorylation, activation of STATs, and subsequent gene expression. Activated STAT3 induces SOCS-3 expression in some cell types, which in turn down-regulates the JAK/STAT pathway. Although both leptin and OB-R are expressed in pituitary cells, the mechanism of signal transduction and its regulation in this organ has not been studied extensively. In these experiments we show that leptin reduces proliferation in a human pituitary cell line (HP75) and also increased apoptosis in these cells. Leptin also increased SOCS-3 mRNA and protein expression and tyrosine-phosphorylation in the HP75 human pituitary cell line. These findings suggest that SOCS-3 plays an important role in the inhibition of proximal leptin signal transduction in the anterior pituitary.
