Wnt proteins in mammary development and cancer.
Review in Journal of mammary gland biology and neoplasia, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 123 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
Secreted proteins of the Wnt family play widespread roles in the regulation of embryonic development, and aberrant activation of the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin pathway is one of the most frequent signaling abnormalities known in human cancer. While the consequences of Wnt signaling in development are diverse at the cellular level, they are often concerned with cell fate determination. Recent data also indicate that Wnt proteins influence the self-renewal of stem cells in certain tissues. In the mammary gland, Wnt signals are strongly implicated in initial development of the mammary rudiments, and in the ductal branching and alveolar morphogenesis that occurs during pregnancy. Transgenic expression of Wnt1 or Wnt10b in the mouse mammary gland leads to lobuloalveolar hyperplasia with a major risk of progression to carcinoma. Recent evidence suggests that this phenotype is associated with expansion of a multipotent progenitor cell population. In human breast cancer, evidence of beta-catenin accumulation implies that the canonical Wnt signaling pathway is active in over 50% of carcinomas. However, specific mutations that might account for this activation of signaling have not yet been identified.
