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
Protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activities in methyl nitrosourea (MNU)-induced rat mammary carcinoma has been investigated by using poly (glu: tyr; 4:1) as an exogenous substrate. The PTK activity of the mammary carcinoma was almost equally distributed between the particulate and soluble (cytosolic) fractions at 110,000 X g. The activity of the particulate enzyme was stimulated by non-ionic detergent Triton X-100 by about 2-fold whereas the detergent had no effect on the cytosolic form. More than 60% of the particulate enzyme could be solubilized by 5% Triton X-100. Although, both particulate and cytosolic PTKs catalyzed the phosphorylation of several tyrosine containing synthetic substrates to various degrees, poly (glu: tyr; 4:1) was the best substrate (apparent Km. 0.7 mg/ml). Both forms of enzymes utilized ATP as the phosphoryl group donor, with an apparent Km of 40 microM. Among various divalent cations tested, Co2+, Mn2+ and Mg2+ were able to fulfill the divalent cation requirement of both forms of the PTKs. All these cations exerted biphasic effects on the kinase activities, however, Mg2+ was the most potent cation. Agents such as epidermal growth factor, insulin and platelet derived growth factor which stimulate their respective receptor-PTK activities were without effect on PTK activities of mammary carcinoma. On the other hand, though heparin and quercetin inhibited both enzyme activities in a concentration dependent manner, the particulate form was more sensitive to inhibition than the cytosolic form. These data indicate that MNU-induced rat mammary carcinoma expresses both particulate and cytosolic forms of PTKs and that there are significant differences in the properties of the two forms of PTKs. Differential effects of some agents on mammary carcinoma PTKs suggest that these enzymes may be acutely regulated in vivo and could play an important role in mammary carcinogenesis.
