Epithelial DNA methyltransferase-1 regulates cell survival, growth and maturation in developing prostatic buds.

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
DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) is required for embryogenesis but roles in late forming organ systems including the prostate, which emerges from the urethral epithelium, have not been fully examined. We used a targeted genetic approach involving a Shhcre recombinase to demonstrate requirement of epithelial DNA methyltransferase-1 (Dnmt1) in mouse prostate morphogenesis. Dnmt1 mutant urethral cells exhibit DNA hypomethylation, DNA damage, p53 accumulation and undergo cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Urethral epithelial cells are disorganized in Dnmt1 mutants, leading to impaired prostate growth and maturation and failed glandular development. We evaluated oriented cell division as a mechanism of bud elongation and widening by demonstrating that mitotic spindle axes typically form parallel or perpendicular to prostatic bud elongation axes. We then deployed a Shh
