A Role for Liquid-Ordered Plasma Membrane Nanodomains Coordinating the Unconventional Secretory Pathway of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2?
Review in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2022. 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
Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) is a tumor cell survival factor that belongs to a subgroup of extracellular proteins lacking N-terminal signal peptides. Whereas this phenomenon was already recognized in the early 1990s, detailed insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying alternative pathways of protein secretion from eukaryotic cells were obtained only recently. Today, we know about a number of alternative secretory mechanisms, collectively termed unconventional protein secretion (UPS). FGF2 belongs to a subgroup of cargo proteins secreted by direct translocation across the plasma membrane. This feature has been classified as type I UPS and is shared with other unconventionally secreted proteins, such as HIV-Tat and Tau. FGF2 translocation across the membrane is initiated through sequential interactions with the Na,K-ATPase, Tec kinase, and phosphoinositide PI(4,5)P
