Regulation of the Aurora B chromosome passenger protein complex during oocyte maturation in Xenopus laevis.
Article in Molecular and cellular biology, 2008. 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
The dynamics of the Aurora B protein kinase during Xenopus oocyte meiotic maturation were examined. Resting G2 oocytes express inactive Aurora B that is not associated with other subunits of the chromosome passenger complex (CPC). Activity increases near the time of germinal vesicle breakdown in progesterone-treated oocytes, and this increase is correlated with the synthesis of inner centromere protein (INCENP) and survivin, components of the CPC. Ablation of INCENP synthesis led to the failure of progesterone treatment to activate Aurora B, but biochemical progression through the meiosis I-to-II transition and arrest at metaphase II were not affected. At fertilization, Aurora B was deactivated in concert with the degradation of INCENP, and the levels of Aurora B kinase activity and INCENP oscillated in subsequent embryonic cell cycles. Prevention of the decrease in Aurora B activity at fertilization by expression of ectopic wild-type INCENP, but not kinase-dead Aurora B INCENP, blocked calcium-induced exit from metaphase arrest in egg extracts.
