Cytoglobin regulates NO-dependent cilia motility and organ laterality during development.
Article in Nature communications, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Cytoglobin is a heme protein with unresolved physiological function. Genetic deletion of zebrafish cytoglobin (cygb2) causes developmental defects in left-right cardiac determination, which in humans is associated with defects in ciliary function and low airway epithelial nitric oxide production. Here we show that Cygb2 co-localizes with cilia and with the nitric oxide synthase Nos2b in the zebrafish Kupffer's vesicle, and that cilia structure and function are disrupted in cygb2 mutants. Abnormal ciliary function and organ laterality defects are phenocopied by depletion of nos2b and of gucy1a, the soluble guanylate cyclase homolog in fish. The defects are rescued by exposing cygb2 mutant embryos to a nitric oxide donor or a soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, or with over-expression of nos2b. Cytoglobin knockout mice also show impaired airway epithelial cilia structure and reduced nitric oxide levels. Altogether, our data suggest that cytoglobin is a positive regulator of a signaling axis composed of nitric oxide synthase-soluble guanylate cyclase-cyclic GMP that is necessary for normal cilia motility and left-right patterning.
