Disruption of retinoid-related orphan receptor beta changes circadian behavior, causes retinal degeneration and leads to vacillans phenotype in mice.
Article in The EMBO journal, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 100 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 orphan nuclear receptor RORbeta is expressed in areas of the central nervous system which are involved in the processing of sensory information, including spinal cord, thalamus and sensory cerebellar cortices. Additionally, RORbeta localizes to the three principal anatomical components of the mammalian timing system, the suprachiasmatic nuclei, the retina and the pineal gland. RORbeta mRNA levels oscillate in retina and pineal gland with a circadian rhythm that persists in constant darkness. RORbeta-/- mice display a duck-like gait, transient male incapability to sexually reproduce, and a severely disorganized retina that suffers from postnatal degeneration. Consequently, adult RORbeta-/- mice are blind, yet their circadian activity rhythm is still entrained by light-dark cycles. Interestingly, under conditions of constant darkness, RORbeta-/- mice display an extended period of free-running rhythmicity. The overall behavioral phenotype of RORbeta-/- mice, together with the chromosomal localization of the RORbeta gene, suggests a close relationship to the spontaneous mouse mutation vacillans described >40 years ago.
