Connexons and cell adhesion: a romantic phase.
Review in Histochemistry and cell biology, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
Recent evidence indicates, that gap junction forming proteins do not only contribute to intercellular communication (Kanno and Saffitz in Cardiovasc Pathol 10:169-177, 2001; Saez et al. in Physiol Rev 83:1359-1400, 2003), ion homeostasis and volume control (Goldberg et al. in J Biol Chem 277:36725-36730, 2002; Saez et al. in Physiol Rev 83:1359-1400, 2003). They also serve biological functions in a mechanical sense, supporting adherent connections between neighbouring cells of epithelial and non-epithelial tissues (Clair et al. in Exp Cell Res 314:1250-1265, 2008; Shaw et al. in Cell 128:547-560, 2007), where they stabilize migratory pathways in the developing central nervous system (Elias et al. in Nature 448:901-907, 2007; Malatesta et al. in Development 127:5253-5263, 2000; Noctor et al. in Nature 409:714-720, 2001; Rakic in Brain Res 33:471-476, 1971; J Comp Neurol 145:61-83 1972; Science 241:170-176, 1988), or mediate polarized movements and directionality of neural crest cells during organogenesis (Kirby and Waldo in Circ Res 77:211-215, 1995; Xu et al. in Development 133:3629-3639, 2006). Since, most data describing adhesive properties of gap junctions delt with connexin 43 (Cx43) (Beardslee et al. in Circ Res 83:629-635, 1998), we will focus our brief review on this isoform.
