Rapid tip growth: insights from pollen tubes.
Review in Seminars in cell & developmental biology, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 75 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
Pollen tubes extend rapidly in an oscillatory manner by the extreme form of polarized growth, tip growth, and provide an exciting system for studying the spatiotemporal control of polarized cell growth. The Rho-family ROP GTPase is a key signaling molecule in this growth control and is periodically activated at the apical plasma membrane to spatially define the apical growth region and temporally precede the burst of growth. The spatiotemporal dynamics of ROP GTPase is interconnected with actin dynamics and polar exocytosis that is required for tip-targeted membrane and wall expansion. Recent advances in the study of the mechanistic interlinks between ROP-centered signaling and spatiotemporal dynamics of cell membrane and wall remodeling will be discussed.
