Drosophila Costal1 mutations are alleles of protein kinase A that modulate hedgehog signaling.

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
Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is crucial for the development of many tissues, and altered Hh signal transduction can result in cancer. The Drosophila Costal1 (Cos1) and costal2 (cos2) genes have been implicated in Hh signaling. cos2 encodes a kinesin-related molecule, one component of a cytoplasmic complex of Hh signal transducers. Mutations in Cos1 enhance loss-of-function cos2 mutations, but the molecular nature of Cos1 has been unknown. We found that previously identified alleles of Cos1 actually map to two separate loci. Four alleles of Cos1 appear to be dominant-negative mutations of a catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (pka-C1) and the fifth allele, Cos1(A1), is a gain-of-function allele of the PKA regulatory subunit pka-RII. PKA-RII protein levels are higher in Cos1(A1) mutants than in wild type. Overexpression of wild-type pka-RII phenocopies Cos1 mutants. PKA activity is aberrant in Cos1(A1) mutants. PKA-RII is uniformly overproduced in the wing imaginal disc in Cos1(A1) mutants, but only certain cells respond by activating the transcription factor Ci and Hh target gene transcription. This work shows that overexpression of a wild-type regulatory subunit of PKA is sufficient to activate Hh target gene transcription.
