Immunoelectron microscopic localisation of transforming growth factor alpha in rat colon.
Article in Gut, 1994. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Transforming growth factor alpha (TGF alpha) is a polypeptide, which binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor to carry out its function related to cell proliferation and differentiation. The ultrastructural localisation of TGF alpha was studied in both the proximal and the distal colon. The columnar cells, lining the surface epithelium of the proximal colon, showed a strong immunoreactivity in the polyribosomes and in the interdigitations of the lateral membrane. The columnar cells of the crypts and the goblet cells in both the proximal and the distal colon showed the immunostaining in the cis and trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. TGF alpha seems to be processed differently in the surface columnar cells and in the crypt columnar cells and goblet cells. Moreover, it probably has different roles in proliferation and differentiation.
