Quantitative trait locus analysis of ovarian cysts derived from rete ovarii in MRL/MpJ mice.
Article in Mammalian genome : official journal of the International Mammalian Genome Society, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
MRL/MpJ (MRL) is a model mouse for autoimmune diseases such as dermatitis, vasculitis, arthritis, and glomerulonephritis. In addition to these immune-associated disorders, we found that older MRL mice develop ovarian cysts originating from the rete ovarii, which is lined by ciliated or nonciliated epithelium and considered remnants of mesonephric tubules. Ovarian cysts, which are reported to have several sources, are associated with female infertility, but information regarding the genetic etiology of ovarian cysts originating from the rete ovarii is rare. In this study, to elucidate the genetic background of development of ovarian cysts, we performed quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis using 120 microsatellite markers, which cover the whole genome of murine chromosomes, and 213 backcross progenies between female MRL and male C57BL/6N mice. The quantitative trait measured was the circumferences of rete ovarii or ovarian cysts. As a result, suggestive linkages were detected on Chrs 3, 4, 6, and 11, but significant linkages were located on Chr 14 by interval mapping. We thereby designated the 27.5-cM region of Chr 14 "MRL Rete Ovarian Cysts (mroc)." The peak regions of Chrs 4 and 14 in particular showed a close additive interaction (p < 0.00001). From these results we concluded that multiple loci on Chrs 3, 4, 6, 11, and 14 interact to result in development of ovarian cysts in MRL mice.
