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

Kinesins are molecular motors that carry cellular cargoes. While the mechanics of single kinesins are well characterized experimentally, the behavior of multiple kinesins varies considerably among experiments. The basis for this variability is unknown. Here, we resolve single-motor force measurements into a vertical component, which accelerates kinesin detachment, and a horizontal component, which decelerates the detachment when resisting the motor. This directionality, when the different experimental geometries are considered, can account for much of the variation in multiple motor dynamics.
