Androgen receptor in rat Harderian and submandibular glands.
Article in The Histochemical journal, 1996. 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
Androgens regulate the development and sexual dimorphism of rodent Harderian and submandibular glands. This effect is believed to be mediated by the androgen receptor. Immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting were carried out to study the receptor in normal, castrated and dihydrotestosterone-supplemented rat Harderian and submandibular glands. Immunohistochemically, the most intense nuclear staining was observed in the acinar cells of the submandibular glands, followed by intercalated duct cells. The granular convoluted tubules showed weak immunostaining and the striated ducts were negative. In the Harderian gland, nuclear staining was seen in both type I and II secretory cells. Castration and treatment had no effect on the expression of the androgen receptor protein in either gland. A 110 K androgen receptor signal was detected by immunoblotting in the Harderian gland but not in the submandibular gland. An experiment was designed to explore the possible effect of proteinases on the receptor protein in the homogenate of submandibular gland. Our results demonstrate the cell-specific location of the receptor in Harderian and submandibular glands, and show that the expression of the receptor protein is androgen-independent.
