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

Precise mitotic spindle orientation is essential for both cell fate and tissue organization while defects in this process are associated with tumorigenesis and other diseases. In most animal cell types, the dynein motor complex is anchored at the cell cortex and exerts pulling forces on astral microtubules to position the spindle. The actin-binding protein MISP controls spindle orientation and mitotic progression in human cells. However, the exact underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. Here we report that MISP interacts with the multidomain scaffolding protein IQGAP1. We further show that MISP binds to the active form of Cdc42 through IQGAP1. Depletion of MISP promotes increased accumulation of IQGAP1 at the cell cortex and a decrease in its Cdc42-binding capacity leading to reduced active Cdc42 levels. Interestingly, overexpression of IQGAP1 can rescue mitotic defects caused by MISP downregulation including spindle misorientation, loss of astral microtubules and prolonged mitosis and also restores active Cdc42 levels. Importantly, we find that IQGAP1 acts downsteam of MISP in regulating astral microtubule dynamics and the localization of the dynactin subunit p150
