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

Biofilaments like F-actin or microtubules, as well as cilia, flagella, or filament bundles, are often deformed by distributed and time-dependent external forces. It is highly desirable to characterize these filaments' mechanics in an efficient way, either using a single experiment or a high throughput method. We here propose a dynamic power balance approach to study nonequilibrium filament dynamics and exemplify it both experimentally and theoretically by applying it to microtubule gliding assay dynamics. Its usefulness is highlighted by the experimental determination of the lateral friction coefficient for microtubules on kinesins. In contrast to what is usually assumed, friction is anisotropic, in a similar fashion as hydrodynamic friction. We also exemplify, by considering a microtubule buckling event, that if at least one parameter is known in advance, all other parameters can be determined by analyzing a single time-dependent experiment.
