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

During meiosis, two consecutive nuclear divisions follow a single round of deoxyribonucleic acid replication. In meiosis I, homologues are segregated, whereas in meiosis II, sister chromatids are segregated. This requires that the sequential assembly and dissolution of specialized chromosomal factors are coordinated with two rounds of spindle assembly and disassembly. How these events are coupled is unknown. In this paper, we show, in budding yeast, that the protein phosphatase 2A regulatory subunit Cdc55 couples the loss of linkages between chromosomes with nuclear division by restraining two other phosphatases, Cdc14 and PP2A(Rts1). Cdc55 maintains Cdc14 sequestration in the nucleolus during early meiosis, and this is essential for the assembly of the meiosis I spindle but not for chromosomes to separate. Cdc55 also limits the formation of PP2A holocomplexes containing the alternative regulatory subunit Rts1, which is crucial for the timely dissolution of sister chromatid cohesion. Therefore, Cdc55 orders passage through the meiotic divisions by ensuring a balance of phosphatases.
