Spindle assembly in the oocytes of mouse and Drosophila--similar solutions to a problem.
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 10 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
In the oocytes of many organisms a bipolar spindle is assembled in the absence of centrosomes. In this article we review how this occurs in two model organisms, Drosophila melanogaster and Mus musculus. Common themes include an important role for the chromosomes but paradoxically, organization of a bipolar spindle may not involve kinetochore microtubules. Some comparisons are not yet possible, however, since the same genes have usually not been studied in both systems.
