Increased spindle resistance to antimicrotubule agents in cells prone to chromosomal nondisjunction.
Article in Human genetics, 1989. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The cytological behavior of the spindle apparatus was studied in cells prone to nondisjunction (ND), i.e., PHA-stimulated lymphocytes derived from children suffering from different types of neoplasia. These cells, which exhibited a high frequency of nonspecific aneuploidy, revealed an increased resistance of the spindle fibers to colchicine, podophyllotoxin, and cold, which was several times that of lymphocytes derived from healthy children. The results are in accord with previous findings showing a high resistance of spindle microtubules to the antimicrotubular agents colchicine, podophyllotoxin, vinblastine, and cold in PHA-stimulated lymphocytes derived from individuals prone to meiotic ND. It is therefore assumed that high resistance of the spindle apparatus to antimicrotubule agents characterizes cells at high risk for aneuploidy, and possibly, the overstabilized spindle fibers are responsible for failure of chromosomal disjunction.
