Elucidation of Medusozoan (Jellyfish) Venom Constituent Activities Using Constellation Pharmacology.
Article in Toxins, 2024. 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
Within the phylum Cnidaria, sea anemones (class Anthozoa) express a rich diversity of ion-channel peptide modulators with biomedical applications, but corollary discoveries from jellyfish (subphylum Medusozoa) are lacking. To bridge this gap, bioactivities of previously unexplored proteinaceous and small molecular weight (~15 kDa to 5 kDa) venom components were assessed in a mouse dorsal root ganglia (DRG) high-content calcium-imaging assay, known as constellation pharmacology. While the addition of crude venom led to nonspecific cell death and Fura-2 signal leakage due to pore-forming activity, purified small molecular weight fractions of venom demonstrated three main, concentration-dependent and reversible effects on defined heterogeneous cell types found in the primary cultures of mouse DRG. These three phenotypic responses are herein referred to as phenotype A, B and C: excitatory amplification (A) or inhibition (B) of KCl-induced calcium signals, and test compound-induced disturbances to baseline calcium levels (C). Most notably, certain
