1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Cytokinesis in animal cells is accomplished in part by an actomyosin contractile ring. Recent work on amphibian, Drosophila, and Caenorhabditis elegans embryos implicates membrane trafficking and delivery as essential for cytokinesis. However, the relative contributions of contractile ring constriction versus membrane insertion to cytokinesis and the temporal relationship between these processes are largely unexplored. Here we monitor secretion of the extracellular matrix protein, hyalin, as a marker for new plasma membrane addition in dividing sea urchin zygotes. We find that new membrane addition occurs specifically in the cleavage furrow late in telophase independent of contractile ring constriction. The directed equatorial deposition of new furrow membrane requires astral microtubules and release of internal stores of Ca(2+), but not the presence of a central spindle. Further, cells arrested in M phase do not secrete hyalin, suggesting that mitotic exit is required for new membrane addition. These results demonstrate that astral overlap in equilaterally dividing cells not only serves to specify positioning and contraction of the contractile ring, but also to direct the delivery of new membrane to the furrow as a late, independent event during cytokinesis.
