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

backgroundThe growth plate is a special region of the cartilage that drives longitudinal growth of long bones. Proliferating chondrocytes in the growth plate, arranged in columns, divide perpendicular to the long axis of the growth plate then intercalate to re-align with parental columns. Which molecular partners maintain growth plate columnar structures and chondrocyte cytokinesis has not been fully revealed. It is reported that kinesin family member 3A (KIF3A), a subunit of kinesin-2, plays an important role in maintaining columnar organization in growth plates via controlling primary cilia formation and cell proliferation.

resultHere we identify kinesin family member 5B (KIF5B), the heavy chain of kinesin-1, a ubiquitously expressed motor protein for anterograde intracellular transport along the microtubule network, as a key modulator of cytokinesis in chondrocytes via maintenance of central spindle organization. We show that KIF5B is concentrated in the central spindle during cytokinesis in both primary chondrocytes and chondrogenic ATDC5 cells.

conclusionThe failure of cytokinesis in KIF5B null chondrocytes leads to incomplete cell rotation, disrupting proliferation and differentiation, and results in a disorganized growth plate.
