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 mitosis in higher eukaryotic cells, nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD) occurs and leads to the disassembly of the nuclear membrane and nuclear pore complexes (NPC). This brings about a mixing of nuclear and cytoplasmic macromolecules (open mitosis). On the other hand, in many fungi, mitosis occurs without NEBD (closed mitosis). In a recent study, we reported a novel phenomenon in a closed mitosis organism, Schizosaccharomyces pombe: mixing of nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins occurred in meiosis without breakdown of the nuclear membrane or disassembly of nuclear pore complexes. We designated this event virtual nuclear envelope breakdown (V-NEBD). The key event in V-NEBD is nuclear translocation of Rna1, a RanGAP1 homologue in S. pombe. This leads to collapse of the Ran-GTP gradient across the nuclear envelope (NE) and occurs coincidently with V-NEBD. Thus, the barrier function of the NE can be abated without its physical breakdown through modulation of the Ran-GTP gradient.
