Incorporation of Paramecium axonemal tubulin into higher plant cells reveals functional sites of microtubule assembly.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1990. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Incorporation of Paramecium axonemal tubulin into lysed endosperm cells of the higher plant Haemanthus enabled us to identify sites of microtubule assembly. This exogenous Paramecium tubulin could be traced by specific antibodies that do not stain endogenous plant microtubules. Intracellular copolymerization of protozoan and higher plant tubulins gave rise to hybrid polymers that were visualized by immunofluorescence and by immunoelectron microscopy. The addition of exogenous tubulin revealed many free ends of endogenous microtubules that were competent to assemble ciliate tubulin. The functional roles of the nuclear surface and the equatorial region of the phragmoplast as plant microtubule-organizing centers, which were revealed by the intense incorporation of exogenous tubulin, are discussed. These data shed light on the present debate on higher plant microtubule organizing centers.
