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
Faithful chromosome segregation during the cell cycle is ensured by the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC). Although SAC activity is highly conserved and most organisms share common SAC components, additional proteins that regulate SAC activity to ensure high fidelity chromosome segregation are present in higher eukaryotes. Zw10 is one of these additional SAC components. Although Zw10 has been demonstrated to be involved in SAC activity during mitosis, little is known about its role during oocyte meiosis. Here, we report that Zw10 is localized at the kinetochore and is required for SAC activation during meiotic maturation. Knockdown of Zw10 led to precocious polar body extrusion by impairing Mad2 recruitment at kinetochores. Moreover, Zw10 knockdown impaired chromosome alignment and kinetochore-microtubule attachment, increasing the incidence of aneuploidy. Furthermore, Zw10 expression decreased with maternal age, suggesting that Zw10 is associated with the age-related increase in the incidence of aneuploidy. Together, our results demonstrate that Zw10 is localized at kinetochores and functions as an essential SAC component in mouse oocytes.
