Retinoic acid regulation of eye and testis-specific transcripts within a complex locus.
Article in Mechanisms of development, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 previously used a yeast-based enhancer trap to identify a strong, retinoic acid response element (RARE). We have now characterized testis and eye transcripts that are adjacent to this regulatory element. Bioinformatics analysis of expressed sequence tag (EST) clones and RNase protection, reverse transcription-PCR, and Northern blot assays indicate that these two RNAs are transcribed from the same locus on opposite template strands. This positions the RARE upstream of the testis transcript and downstream of the eye transcript. Additionally, these two RNAs are embedded within the third intron of the 329kbp gene that encodes the Zinc Finger and BTB domain containing 7C protein (Zbtb7C). We present evidence indicating that the testis transcript is expressed primarily in spermatocytes and/or early round spermatids. Furthermore, our analyses of transcript levels in eyes and testes isolated from vitamin A deficient mice or from mice with defects in retinoid storage or signaling indicate that retinoids are required for expression in vivo.
