How does Hsp90 function in RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly?
Review in Current genetics, 2019. 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
Heat-shock protein 90 (Hsp90) was recently identified as a silencing factor required for RNA interference (RNAi)-dependent heterochromatin assembly in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. As Hsp90 is known to contribute to the formation of small RNA-containing effector complexes, it would be expected that Hsp90 is also involved in the RNAi pathway in fission yeast. However, upon investigation, we found it very difficult to determine how Hsp90 modulates RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly in the cell. A lack of detectable small interfering RNAs in hsp90 mutant cells prevented us from examining the role of Hsp90 in the siRNA loading in the cell. In addition, deletion of genes encoding co-chaperones for Hsp90 appears not to affect RNAi-dependent pericentromeric silencing. One possible approach for elucidating the role of Hsp90 in RNAi-dependent heterochromatin assembly is the use of forward genetic screens to identify novel factors linking Hsp90 with other known RNAi factors. Here, we discuss the benefits of conducting further screenings and present some technical hints to help identify new factors.
