Cells transformed by a v-Myb-estrogen receptor fusion differentiate into multinucleated giant cells.
Article in Journal of virology, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
In order to make conditional alleles of the v-myb oncogene, we constructed and tested avian retroviruses which produce a number of different fusion proteins between v-Myb and the human estrogen receptor (ER). We found that the portion of the ER used in making these fusions profoundly affected their transcriptional activation. However, all the fusions tested were only weakly transforming in embryonic yolk sac assays and there was no direct correlation between the level of transcriptional activation and strength of oncogenic transformation. Nevertheless, transformation by a v-Myb-ER fusion was estrogen dependent, and upon withdrawal of the hormone, monocytic-lineage cells differentiated into multinucleated giant cells. Surprisingly, the withdrawal of estrogen caused a dramatic increase in the stability of the fusion protein, although it remained unable to promote cell growth or block differentiation.
