Expression and Significance of AQP3 in Cutaneous Lesions.
Article in Analytical cellular pathology (Amsterdam), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Aquaporin 3 (AQP3) is the membrane channel of water and involved in fluid homeostasis. The aim of this study was to reveal the expression and significance of AQP3 in cutaneous lesions. We analyzed AQP3 mRNA levels using RT-PCR in 311 cutaneous lesions and confirmed AQP3 expression in these lesions by immunohistochemistry. AQP3 mRNA was detected in normal epidermis, seborrheic keratosis, solar keratosis, Bowen's disease, squamous cell carcinoma, eccrine poroma, apocrine carcinoma, and sebaceoma; however, AQP3 mRNA was absent in basal cell carcinoma, nevocellular nevus, or malignant melanoma. By immunohistochemistry, diffuse AQP3 expression was seen in all keratotic lesions including seborrheic keratosis, verruca vulgaris, molluscum contagiosum, solar keratosis, Bowen's disease, and squamous cell carcinoma. Diffuse AQP3 expression was also present in all extramammary Paget's disease. No AQP3 staining was obtained in basal cell carcinoma. Positive AQP3 staining was seen in sweat gland tumors including hidradenoma, eccrine poroma, and apocrine carcinoma. Among sebaceous tumors, AQP3 expressed diffusely in all sebaceous hyperplasia and sebaceous adenoma, but not in sebaceous carcinomas. Only focal AQP3 staining was seen in nevocellular nevus and no AQP3 staining in melanoma. Our findings indicate the function of AQP3 maintained in most skin tumors. AQP3 may be used for differential diagnosis in skin tumors.
