Characterization of a serotonin receptor endogenous to frog melanophores.
Article in Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's archives of pharmacology, 1994. 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
The response of a cell line of Xenopus laevis melanophores to serotonin was examined. Serotonin increased intracellular levels of cAMP and induced pigment dispersion in the cells. The responses depended on both the concentration of serotonin applied and on the time for which the cells were exposed to serotonin. Using a recently described, microtiter-plate-based bioassay, a series of serotonin receptor ligands were evaluated as agonists or antagonists at the melanophore serotonin receptor. The pharmacological profile suggests the presence of a receptor which shares some properties with but appears different from other previously described serotonin receptors.
