{beta}-Apocarotenoids do not significantly activate retinoic acid receptors {alpha} or {beta}.
Article in Experimental biology and medicine (Maywood, N.J.), 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
beta-Carotene oxygenase 2 cleaves beta-carotene asymmetrically at non-central double bonds of the polyene chain, yielding apocarotenal molecules. The hypothesis tested was that apocarotenoids are able to stimulate transcription by activating retinoic acid receptors (RARs). The effects of long- and short-chain apocarotenals and apocarotenoic acids on the activation of RARalpha and RARbeta transfected into monkey kidney fibroblast cells (CV-1) were investigated. We synthesized or purified beta-apo-8'-carotenoic acid (apo-8'-CA), beta-apo-14'-carotenoic acid (apo-14'-CA), beta-cyclocitral (BCL), beta-cyclogernanic acid (BCA), beta-ionone (BI), beta-ionylideneacetaldehyde (BIA) beta-ionylideneacetic acid (BIAA) and a C13 ketone, beta-apo-13-carotenone (C13). None of the apocarotenoids tested showed significant transactivation activity for the RARs when compared with all-trans retinoic acid (RA). The results suggest that biological effects of these apocarotenoids are through mechanisms other than activation of RARalpha and beta.
