Thyroid hormone and apotransferrin regulation of growth hormone secretion by GH1 rat pituitary tumor cells in iron restricted serum-free defined medium.

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
Growth hormone (GH) production by GH1 rat pituitary tumor cells in iron restricted serum-free defined medium requires apotransferrin (apoTf) and triiodothyronine (T3). As measured by radioimmunoassay, apoTf plus T3 induced GH levels 2 to 4-fold above controls. Deletion of either apoTf or T3 arrested GH secretion. ApoTf/T3 defined medium regulated GH production as effectively as whole serum. Because glucocorticoids enhance GH secretion in serum containing cultures, the effects of dexamethasone were evaluated in apoTf/T3 defined medium. The steroid hormone showed no enhancing effects unless the cells were exposed to serum prior to incubation in apoTf/T3 defined medium. Even under these conditions, the response to dexamethasone remained T3 dependent. These observations indicate that a yet to be characterized serum factor(s), other than apoTf, regulates the response to the steroid hormone. This is the first report of thyroid hormone regulation of GH secretion by rat pituitary tumor cells under completely serum-free chemically defined conditions.
