Old friends, new story: The role of Slit2C signaling through PlexinA1.
Article in Cell adhesion & migration, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Growth cone guidance is driven by attractive and repulsive signaling cues. Until recently, repulsive signaling by semaphorins was thought to be mediated through Plexin receptors, whereas Slits-induced repulsion was solely mediated through Robo receptors. In a recent report published in Nature Neuroscience, Celine Delloye-Bourgeois and colleagues (2015) combined phenotypic analyses of transgenic mouse lines and in vitro biochemical experiments to identify PlexinA1 as a novel receptor for Slits. Strikingly, they uncovered for the very first time that the Slit2C-terminal fragment possesses some unique biological activity as binding partner for PlexinA1. Even more excitingly, the signaling cascade triggered by SlitC binding to PlexinA1 mediates growth cone collapse of commissural axons both in vivo and ex vivo and nicely complements Robo-Slit signaling in the developing spinal cord midline to prevent midline recrossing.
