bHLH Transcription Factor Math6 Antagonizes TGF-β Signalling in Reprogramming, Pluripotency and Early Cell Fate Decisions.
Article in Cells, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Math6 (Atonal homolog 8; Atoh8) plays a crucial role in a number of cellular processes during embryonic development, iron metabolism and tumorigenesis. We report here on its involvement in cellular reprogramming from fibroblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells, in the maintenance of pluripotency and in early fate decisions during murine development. Loss of Math6 disrupts mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition during reprogramming and primes pluripotent stem cells towards the mesendodermal fate. Math6 can thus be considered a regulator of reprogramming and pluripotent stem cell fate. Additionally, our results demonstrate the involvement of Math6 in SMAD-dependent TGF beta signalling. We furthermore monitor the presence of the Math6 protein during these developmental processes using a newly generated
