Assaying Mutants of Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis in the Fly Eye.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis plays essential roles both during and after development, and loss-of-function mutants affected in this process are mostly not viable. Different approaches have been developed to circumvent this limitation, including resorting to mosaic model organisms. We here describe the use of FLP/FRT-mediated mitotic recombination to generate Drosophila melanogaster having homozygous mutant eyes while the rest of their body is heterozygous. We then present a detailed protocol for assessing the consequences of these loss-of-function mutations on endocytosis in the photoreceptors of living fruit flies by recording electroretinograms.
