Mutational analysis of essential septins reveals a role for septin-mediated signaling in filamentation.
Article in Eukaryotic cell, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Septin proteins are conserved structural proteins that often demarcate regions of cell division. The essential nature of the septin ring, composed of several septin proteins, complicates investigation of the functions of the ring, although careful analysis in the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has elucidated the role that septins play in the cell cycle. Mutation analysis of nonessential septins in the pathogenic fungus Candida albicans has shown that septins also have vital roles in cell wall regulation (CWR), hyphal formation, and pathogenesis. While mutations in nonessential septins have been useful in establishing phenotypes, the septin defect is so slight that identifying causative associations between septins and downstream effectors has been difficult. In this work, we describe decreased abundance by mRNA perturbation (DAmP) alleles of essential septins, which display a septin defect more severe than the defect observed in deletions of nonessential septins. The septin DAmP alleles have allowed us to genetically separate the roles of septins in hyphal growth and CWR and to identify the cyclic AMP pathway as a pathway that likely acts in a parallel manner with septins in hyphal morphogenesis.
