Dynamic catch-bonding generates the large stall forces of cytoplasmic dynein.

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
Cytoplasmic dynein is an important molecular motor involved in the transport of vesicular and macromolecular cargo along microtubules in cells, often in conjunction with kinesin motors. Dynein is larger and more complex than kinesin and the mechanism and regulation of its movement is currently the subject of intense research. While it was believed for a long time that dynein motors are relatively weak in terms of the force they can generate, recent studies have shown that interactions with regulatory proteins confer large stall forces comparable to those of kinesin. This paper reports on a theoretical study which suggests that these large stall forces may be the result of an emergent, ATP-dependent, bistability resulting in a dynamic catch-bonding behavior that can cause the motor to switch between high and low load-force states.
