The comparative biology of whey proteins.
Review in Journal of mammary gland biology and neoplasia, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Lactational strategies and associated development of the young have been studied in a diverse range of species, and comparative analysis allows common trends and differences to be revealed. The whey fraction contains a vast number of proteins, many of which have not been assigned a function. However, it is expected that an understanding of the comparative biology of these proteins may provide some promise in assigning a function to the major whey proteins. Whey acidic protein is a major component of the whey fraction that has been studied across a range of species, revealing conservation of gene structure, whereas regulation and temporal expression patterns vary. This review focuses primarily on comparative analysis of whey acidic protein, highlighting gene structure, developmental and hormonal regulation, and potential functional roles for this protein. In addition, the contrasting regulation and secretion profiles of several other major whey proteins are discussed.
