Placental growth hormones.
Review in Endocrine, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Survival and development of the mammalian conceptus depends on a variety of factors. Fetal growth is controlled by genetic and environmental determinants that may limit the mother's capacity to provide an appropriate environment (e.g., space, nutrients, temperature). Exchanges between the mother and fetus take place within the placenta. Interestingly, despite the diversity of mammalian species in terms of placental structure and hormonal functions, placental size at term always correlates with birth weight, reflecting the essential role of this temporary organ. The placenta is the site of major endocrine activity, including synthesis of a broad range of steroid and peptide hormones, growth factors, cytokines, and other bioactive factors. Some of these are produced exclusively by the placenta, including chorionic gonadotropin, and growth hormone (GH)/prolactin-like hormones. This article focuses on the expression, regulation, and physiologic role of placental GHs in mammalian species. Published data suggest that placental GHs are essential for adapting the maternal metabolism to pregnancy, for normal placental development, and therefore for fetal growth.
