Yeast vacuoles and membrane fusion pathways.
Review in The EMBO journal, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 61 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
Selective membrane fusion underlies subcellular compartmentation, cell growth, neurotransmission and hormone secretion. Its fundamental mechanisms are conserved among organelles, tissues and organisms. As befits a conserved process, reductionism led to its study in microorganisms. Homotypic fusion of the vacuole of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is particularly accessible to study as vacuoles are readily visualized, there is a rapid and quantitative in vitro assay of vacuole fusion, and the genetics and genomics of this organism and of vacuole fusion are highly advanced. Recent progress is reviewed in the context of general questions in the membrane fusion field.
