Zinc binding to human lactogenic hormones and the human prolactin receptor.
Article in FEBS letters, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Zinc half sites are present in all human lactogenic hormones: human prolactin (hPRL), growth hormone (hGH), placental lactogens (hPL) and the hPRL receptor (hPRLr). The influence of divalent zinc (Zn(2+)) as measured by intrinsic fluorescence or FRET in each of these hormones is unique and is affected by the presence of varying stoichiometries of hPRLr. These data show that both Zn(2+) and hPRLr binding influence hPRL conformers in an interdependent fashion. Although each of these three lactogenic hormones bind hPRLr and induce a biological response that is sensitive to the presence of increasing concentrations of Zn(2+), each hormone is unique in the mechanistic details of this process.
