Probing Endocytosis During the Cell Cycle with Minimal Experimental Perturbation.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 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
Endocytosis mediates the cellular uptake of nutrients, modulates signaling by regulating levels of cell surface receptors, and is usurped by pathogens during infection. Endocytosis activity is known to vary during the cell cycle, in particular during mitosis. Importantly, different experimental conditions can lead to opposite results and conclusions, thereby emphasizing the need for a careful design of protocols. For example, experiments using serum-starvation, ice-cold steps or using mitotic arrest produced by chemicals widely used to synchronize cells (nocodazole, RO-3306, or S-trityl-L-cysteine) induce a blockage of clathrin-mediated endocytosis during mitosis not observed in unperturbed, dividing cells. In addition, perturbations produced by mRNA interference or dominant-negative mutant overexpression affect endocytosis long before cells are being assayed. Here, we describe simple experimental procedures to assay endocytosis along the cell cycle with minimal perturbations.
