Long-term osmotic regulation of amino acid transport systems in mammalian cells.
Article in Amino acids, 1996. 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
Mammalian cells accumulate organic osmolytes, either to adapt to permanent osmotic changes or to mediate cell volume increase in cell cycle progression. Amino acids may serve as osmolytes in a great variety of cells. System A, a transport system for neutral amino acids, is induced after hypertonic shock by a mechanism which requires protein synthesis and gene transcription. Indirect evidence supports the view that system A activity increases due to the interaction of pre-existing A carriers with putative activating proteins. The intracellular accumulation of most neutral amino acids after hypertonic shock depends, exclusively, on the increase in system A activity. Long-term activation of system A is dependent on the integrity of cytoskeletal structures, but in a different way depending on whether cells are polarized or not.
