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
Neuroblastoma x glioma hybrid, NG108-15, cells appear to express the alpha-subunit of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein Gs in a substantial molar excess over its effector adenylate cyclase [Kim, Adie and Milligan (1994) Eur. J. Biochem. 219, 135-143]. Addition of the IP prostanoid receptor agonist iloprost to intact NG108-15 cells resulted in a dose-dependent increase in formation of the complex between Gs alpha and adenylate cyclase (GSAC) as measured by specific high-affinity binding of [3H]forskolin. NG108-15 cells transfected to express either relatively high (clone beta N22) or low (clone beta N17) levels of beta 2-adrenoceptor both showed dose-dependent increases in specific [3H]forskolin binding in response to the beta-adrenoceptor agonist isoprenaline, and maximally effective concentrations of isoprenaline resulted in the generation of similar numbers of GSAC complexes in both clones. The dose-effect curve for clone beta N22, however, was some 15-fold to the left of that for clone beta N17, which is similar to that noted for isoprenaline-mediated stimulation of adenylate cyclase activity [Adie and Milligan (1994) Biochem. J. 303, 803-808]. In contrast, dose-effect curves for iloprost stimulation of [3H]forskolin binding were not different in clones beta N22 and beta N17. Basal specific [3H]forskolin binding in the absence of agonist was significantly greater in cells of clone beta N22 than clone beta N17. This was not a reflection of higher immunological levels of adenylate cyclase, indicating that the higher basal formation of GSAC probably reflects empty-receptor activation of Gs. This higher basal specific [3H]forskolin binding was partially reversed by propranolol. The addition of the opioid peptide D-Ala-D-Leu-enkephalin to NG108-15 cells did not reduce iloprost-stimulated [3H]forskolin binding even though this peptide inhibits stimulated adenylate cyclase activity by activation of a delta opioid receptor.
