Mild whole-body heat stress alters retinoid metabolism in the rat small intestine.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Mild heat treatment can modulate metabolism and prevent stress-induced alterations in cells and tissues. Retinoids are known to influence cellular metabolism and are essential for growth and differentiation, particularly of epithelial tissue. This study examines the effect of mild heat treatment on retinoid alterations in enterocytes in the rat small intestine. Heat treatment changed the differentiation pattern of enterocytes along the villus-crypt axis, accompanied by increases in retinol, retinaldehyde, and retinoic acid in proliferating crypt cells. Activities of retinoid metabolizing enzymes such as retinaldehyde oxidase and retinaldehyde reductase were also increased. These results suggest that mild heat treatment can alter retinoid metabolism in the small intestine, which might influence epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation.
