Theory of spatial patterns of intracellular organelles.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Here we report on a generalized theory of spatial patterns of intracellular organelles, which are controlled by cells using cytoskeleton-based movements powered by molecular motors. The theory reveals that organelles exhibit one of the four distinct, stable patterns, namely aggregation, hyperdispersion, radial dispersion, and areal dispersion. Existence of specific patterns is determined by the contributions from three transport mechanisms, characterized by two Peclet numbers. The predicted patterns compare well with experimental data. This study provides a firm theoretical ground for classification of spatial patterns of organelles and understanding their regulation by cells.
