Cloning and expression patterns of dystroglycan during the early development of Xenopus laevis.
Article in Development genes and evolution, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Dystroglycan is a cell surface receptor involved in the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy, and plays a critical role in the assembly and homeostasis of basement membranes. Since data about the amphibian homologue are limited, we have cloned the full-length dystroglycan cDNAs from the frog Xenopus laevis. Using in situ hybridization, we show that mRNA expression is dynamic, particularly in the notochord at the end of gastrulation and during neurulation, suggesting that the protein might play unexplored roles in the specification and/or formation of this tissue. Subsequently, the transcripts are detected in the otic vesicle, the developing brain, and in mesenchymal cells of the visceral arches, as well as in pharyngeal endoderm, the pronephros, pronephric ducts, proctodaeum and the somites.
