Wif1 Mediates Coordination of Bone Morphogenetic Protein and Wnt Signaling in Neural and Glioma Stem Cells.
Article in Cell transplantation. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Wnts, bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) are paracrine signaling pathways implicated in the niche control of stem cell fate decisions. BMP-on and Wnt-off are the dominant quiescent niche signaling pathways in many cell types, including neural stem cells (NSCs). However, among the multiple inhibitory family members of the Wnt pathway, those with direct action after BMP4 stimulation in NSCs remain unclear. We examined 11 Wnt inhibitors in NSCs after BMP4 treatment. Wnt inhibitory factor 1 (Wif1) has been identified as the main factor reacting to BMP4 stimuli. RNA sequencing confirmed that Wif1 was markedly upregulated after BMP4 treatment in different gene expression analyses. Similar to the functional role of BMP4, Wif1 significantly decreased the cell cycle of NSCs and significantly inhibited cell proliferation (
