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

Extracellular guidance cues have a key role in orchestrating cell behaviour. They can take many forms, including soluble and cell-bound ligands (proteins, lipids, peptides or small molecules) and insoluble matrix substrates, but to act as guidance cues, they must be presented to the cell in a spatially restricted manner. Cells that recognize such cues respond by activating intracellular signal transduction pathways in a spatially restricted manner and convert the extracellular information into intracellular polarity. Although extracellular cues influence a broad range of cell polarity decisions, such as mitotic spindle orientation during asymmetric cell division, or the establishment of apical-basal polarity in epithelia, this review will focus specifically on guidance cues that promote cell migration (chemotaxis), or localized cell shape changes (chemotropism).
