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, duplicated sister chromatids are properly aligned at the metaphase plate of the mitotic spindle before being segregated into two daughter cells. This requires a complex process to ensure proper interactions between chromosomes and spindle microtubules. The kinetochore, the proteinaceous complex assembled at the centromere region on each chromosome, serves as the microtubule attachment site and powers chromosome movement in mitosis. Numerous proteins/protein complexes have been implicated in the connection between kinetochores and dynamic microtubules. Recent studies have advanced our understanding on the nature of the interface between kinetochores and microtubule plus ends in promoting and maintaining their stable attachment. These efforts have demonstrated the importance of this process to ensure accurate chromosome segregation, an issue which has great significance for understanding and controlling abnormal chromosome segregation (aneuploidy) in human genetic diseases and in cancer progression.
