Interlocking triads of growth control in tumors.
Article in Bulletin of mathematical biology, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A pair of growth control triads are used to describe coincident tumor growth and liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy. The models are extensions of previous growth control models which describe tumor growth in an unperturbed host (Michelson and Leith, 1991, Bull. math. Biol. 53, 639-656; idem, 1992, Proceedings of the Third International Conference on Communications and Control, Vol. 2, pp. 481-490; idem, 1992 Bull. math. Biol. 55, 993-1011; idem, J. theor. Biol. 169, 327-338). The linkage between the two triads depends upon systemic signals carried by soluble factors, and mathematical descriptors based upon biological first principals are proposed. The sources of the growth factors, their targets and the processing of their signals are investigated. Analyses of equilibrium in the constant coefficients case and simulated growth curves for the dynamic system are presented, and the effects of growth factor-induced mitogenesis and angiogenesis are discussed in particular. A case is made for early and late responses in the coupled control system. The biology of the signal processing paradigm is placed within a new theoretical context and discussed with regard to tumor adaptation, liver differentiation and the development of a tumor hypoxic fraction.
