RNA Recognition-like Motifs Activate a Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase.
Article in Biochemistry, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Smk1 is a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family member in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae that controls the postmeiotic program of spore formation. Ssp2 is a meiosis-specific protein that activates Smk1 and triggers the autophosphorylation of its activation loop. A fragment of Ssp2 that is sufficient to activate Smk1 contains two segments that resemble RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). Mutations in either of these motifs eliminated Ssp2's ability to activate Smk1. In contrast, deletions and insertions within the segment linking the RRM-like motifs only partially reduced the activity of Ssp2. Moreover, when the two RRM-like motifs were expressed as separate proteins in bacteria, they activated Smk1. We also find that both motifs can be cross-linked to Smk1 and that at least one of the motifs binds near the ATP-binding pocket of the MAPK. These findings demonstrate that motifs related to RRMs can directly activate protein kinases.
