Analysis of cytomixis in tobacco microsporocytes with confocal laser scanning microscopy.
Article in Protoplasma, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Confocal laser scanning microscopy for the first time is used to examine the structure of the tobacco microsporocytes involved in the intercellular migration of nuclei (cytomixis). As is observed, the cytomictic channels are distributed over the surface of tobacco microsporocytes in a non-random manner and their number depends on the meiotic stage. Analysis of non-squash cells demonstrates the differences in cytological patterns of cytomixis in a normal meiosis of control tobacco plants (SR1 line) and the abnormal meiosis of polyploids. As a rule, two to three adjacent cells are involved in cytomixis during meiosis of control tobacco plants; after cytomixis, several micronuclei are formed in recipient cells; cytoplasts (enucleated cells) are rare; and polyads are undetectable. In the meiosis of polyploids, cytomixis is massive, with a larger number of cells (sometimes, over ten) involved in nuclear migration simultaneously; recipient cells on completion of cytomixis develop tens of micronuclei; cytoplasts and polyads are frequently detectable.
