HB-EGF Plays a Pivotal Role in Mucosal Hyperplasia During Otitis Media Induced by a Viral Analog.
Article in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2022. 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
Otitis media (OM), the most common childhood illness, can be caused by bacterial and/or viral infection. Hyperplasia of the middle ear (ME) mucosa is an important component of OM that contributes to its deleterious sequelae. Our previous research revealed that ME mucosal hyperplasia in bacterially induced OM was associated with expression of the heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) gene, and that HB-EGF induced the proliferation of ME mucosal explants in culture. We used single-cell RNA-Seq to identify ME cells that express
