Molecular mechanisms underlying the mitosis-meiosis decision.
Review in Chromosome research : an international journal on the molecular, supramolecular and evolutionary aspects of chromosome biology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 56 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
Most eukaryotic cells possess genetic potential to perform meiosis, but the vast majority of them never initiate it. The entry to meiosis is strictly regulated by developmental and environmental conditions, which vary significantly from species to species. Molecular mechanisms underlying the mitosis-meiosis decision are unclear in most organisms, except for a few model systems including fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Nutrient limitation is a cue to the entry into meiosis in this microbe. Signals from nutrients converge on the activity of Mei2 protein, which plays pivotal roles in both induction and progression of meiosis. Here we outline the current knowledge of how a set of environmental stimuli eventually activates Mei2, and discuss how Mei2 governs the meiotic program molecularly, especially focusing on a recent finding that Mei2 antagonizes selective elimination of meiotic messenger RNAs.
