5alpha-Androstane-3alpha,17beta-diol activates pathway that resembles the epidermal growth factor responsive pathways in stimulating human prostate cancer LNCaP cell proliferation.

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
5alpha-Androstane-3alpha,17beta-diol (3alpha-diol) is considered to have no androgenic effects in androgen target organs unless it is oxidized to 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5alpha-DHT). We used microarray and bioinformatics to identify and compare 3alpha-diol and 5alpha-DHT responsive gene in human prostate LNCaP cells. Through a procedure called 'hypervariable determination', a similar set of 30 responsive genes involving signal transduction, transcription regulation, and cell proliferation were selected in 5alpha-DHT-, 3alpha-diol-, and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-treated samples. F-means cluster and networking procedures showed that the responsive pattern of these genes was more closely related between 3alpha-diol and EGF than between 5alpha-DHT and 3alpha-diol treatments. We conclude that 3alpha-diol is capable of stimulating prostate cell proliferation by eliciting EGF-like pathway in conjunction with androgen receptor pathway.
