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

Septins (SEPTs) are filamentous guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins, which affect microtubule (MT)-dependent functions including membrane trafficking and cell division, but their precise role in MT dynamics is poorly understood. Here, in vitro reconstitution of MT dynamics with SEPT2/6/7, the minimal subunits of septin heteromers, shows that SEPT2/6/7 has a biphasic concentration-dependent effect on MT growth. Lower concentrations of SEPT2/6/7 enhance MT plus-end growth and elongation, while higher and intermediate concentrations inhibit and pause plus-end growth, respectively. We show that SEPT2/6/7 has a modest preference for GTP- over guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound MT lattice and competes with end-binding protein 1 (EB1) for binding to guanosine 5'-
