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

During the cell cycle of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, striking changes in the organization of the cytoplasmic microtubule cytoskeleton take place. These may serve as a model for understanding the different modes of microtubule organization that are often characteristic of differentiated higher eukaryotic cells. In the last few years, considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the organization and behaviour of fission yeast cytoplasmic microtubules, not only in the identification of the genes and proteins involved but also in the physiological analysis of function using fluorescently-tagged proteins in vivo. In this review we discuss the state of our knowledge in three areas: microtubule nucleation, regulation of microtubule dynamics and the organization and polarity of microtubule bundles. Advances in these areas provide a solid framework for a more detailed understanding of cytoplasmic microtubule organization.
