Meiotic prophase-like pathway for cleavage-independent removal of cohesin for chromosome morphogenesis.
Review in Current genetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Sister chromatid cohesion is essential for chromosome segregation both in mitosis and meiosis. Cohesion between two chromatids is mediated by a protein complex called cohesin. The loading and unloading of the cohesin are tightly regulated during the cell cycle. In vertebrate cells, cohesin is released from chromosomes by two distinct pathways. The best characterized pathway occurs at the onset of anaphase, when the kleisin component of the cohesin is destroyed by a protease, separase. The cleavage of the cohesin by separase releases entrapped sister chromatids allowing anaphase to commence. In addition, prior to the metaphase-anaphase transition, most of cohesin is removed from chromosomes in a cleavage-independent manner. This cohesin release is referred to as the prophase pathway. In meiotic cells, sister chromatid cohesion is essential for the segregation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis I. Thus, it was assumed that the prophase pathway for cohesin removal from chromosome arms would be suppressed during meiosis to avoid errors in chromosome segregation. However, recent studies revealed the presence of a meiosis-specific prophase-like pathway for cleavage-independent removal of cohesin during late prophase I in different organisms. In budding yeast, the cleavage-independent removal of cohesin is mediated through meiosis-specific phosphorylation of cohesin subunits, Rec8, the meiosis-specific kleisin, and the yeast Wapl ortholog, Rad61/Wpl1. This pathway plays a role in chromosome morphogenesis during late prophase I, promoting chromosome compaction. In this review, we give an overview of the prophase pathway for cohesin dynamics during meiosis, which has a complex regulation leading to differentially localized populations of cohesin along meiotic chromosomes.
