Formin-mediated epigenetic maintenance of centromere identity.
Review in Small GTPases, 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
Accurate chromosome segregation in mammalian cells is guided by the centromere, a specialized chromosome region defined by the histone H3 variant centromere protein A (CENP-A). It is not well understood how cells maintain CENP-A levels at centromeres while continuously going through genome replications and cell divisions. A MgcRacGAP-dependent small GTPase molecular switch has been shown as essential for centromeric CENP-A maintenance. By using quantitative imaging, pulse-chase and live cell analysis, a recent work has suggested that the diaphanous formin mDia2, a well-established small GTPase effector, functions downstream of this small GTPase pathway to maintain CENP-A levels at centromeres. A constitutively active mDia2 construct is able to rescue the CENP-A loading defect caused by MgcRacGAP depletion. This study has uncovered an unsuspected role of the cytoskeleton protein mDia2 as an effector of the MgcRacGAP-dependent small GTPase signaling inside the nucleus to participate in the epigenetic regulation of centromere maintenance during cell cycle.
