Cajal-type cells from human mammary gland stroma: phenotype characteristics in cell culture.
Article in Journal of cellular and molecular medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
We report here the in vitro isolation of Cajal-like interstitial cells from human inactive mammary-gland stroma. Primary cell cultures examined in phase-contrast microscopy or after vital methylene-blue staining revealed a cell population with characteristic morphological phenotype: fusiform, triangular or polygonal cell body and the corresponding (very) long, slender, moniliform cytoplasmic processes. Giemsa staining pointed out the typical knobbed aspect of cell prolongations. Immunofluorescence (IF) showed, like in situ immunohistochemistry, that Cajal-type cells in vitro (primary cultures), expressed c-kit/CD117 and vimentin. In conclusion, the images presented here reinforce our previous hypothesis that human mammary glands have a distinct population of Cajal-like cells in non-epithelial tissue compartments.
