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

The spindle is a dynamic, microtubule-based structure responsible for chromosome segregation during cell division. Spindles in mammalian cells contain several thousand microtubules that are arranged into highly symmetric bipolar arrays by the actions of numerous microtubule-associated motor and non-motor proteins. In addition to these protein constituents, recent work has demonstrated that poly(ADP-ribose) is a key spindle component. Of the multitude of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase proteins encoded in the genome, tankyrase 1 appears to be the primary enzyme responsible for building poly(ADP-ribose) in spindles during mitosis. In this issue of the Biochemical Journal, Susan Smith and co-workers show that the primary target of tankyrase 1 in dividing cells is NuMA (nuclear mitotic apparatus protein), a protein that cross-links microtubule ends at spindle poles. The impact of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation on the biochemical function of NuMA remains murky at this time, but these new results represent the first step to clearing the view as to how poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation regulates cell division.
