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, telomeres cluster and promote homologous chromosome pairing. Telomere clustering depends on conserved SUN and KASH domain nuclear membrane proteins, which form a complex called the linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) and connect telomeres with the cytoskeleton. It has been thought that LINC-mediated cytoskeletal forces induce telomere clustering. However, how cytoskeletal forces induce telomere clustering is not fully understood. Recent study of fission yeast has shown that the LINC complex forms the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) at the telomere, which has been designated as the "telocentrosome", and that microtubule motors gather telomeres via telocentrosome-nucleated microtubules. This MTOC-dependent telomere clustering might be conserved in other eukaryotes. Furthermore, the MTOC-dependent clustering mechanism appears to function in various other biological events. This review presents an overview of the current understanding of the mechanism of meiotic telomere clustering and discusses the universality of the MTOC-dependent clustering mechanism.
