Electrically mediated protein movement inDrosophila follicles.
Article in Roux's archives of developmental biology : the official organ of the EDBO, 1988. 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
Distribution of rhodamine-conjugated lysozyme injected into the sixteen-cell syncytium comprising the germ-line portion of theDrosophila follicle is shown to be affected by charge. Positive molecules are able to migrate through intercellular bridges from the oocyte to the nurse cells, but are unable to migrate detectably from nurse cells to the oocyte. Their negatively charged counterparts can move from the nurse cells to the oocyte, but are unable to traverse the intercellular bridges in the counter direction. This charge-dependent movement of molecules is accompanied by an electrical potential difference, focused across the nurse cell-oocyte bridges, which makes the nurse cells negatively charged to the oocyte. The addition of insect hemolymph to the physiological salt solution in which the experiments were performed resulted in only a small increase in the transmembrane resistance, but enhanced the potential difference between oocyte and nurse cells from 0.2±0.3 (SE) mV (nurse cells negative) to 2.3±0.45 (SE) mV (nurse cells negative).
