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

Cytokinesis, the final stage of the cell cycle, is an essential step toward the formation of two viable daughter cells. In recent years, membrane trafficking has been shown to be important for the completion of cytokinesis. Vesicles originating from both the endocytic and secretory pathways are known to be shuttled to the plasma membrane of the ingressing cleavage furrow, delivering membrane and proteins to this dynamic region. Advances in cell imaging have led to exciting new discoveries regarding vesicle movement in living cells. Recent work has revealed a significant role for membrane trafficking, as controlled by regulatory proteins, during cytokinesis in animal cells. The endocytic and secretory pathways as well as motor proteins are revealed to be essential in the delivery of vesicles to the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis.
