Anatomy of the fungal microtubule organizing center, the spindle pole body.
Review in Current opinion in structural biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers.
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
The fungal kingdom is large and diverse, representing extremes of ecology, life cycles and morphology. At a cellular level, the diversity among fungi is particularly apparent at the spindle pole body (SPB). This nuclear envelope embedded structure, which is essential for microtubule nucleation, shows dramatically different morphologies between different fungi. However, despite phenotypic diversity, many SPB components are conserved, suggesting commonalities in structure, function and duplication. Here, I review the organization of the most well-studied SPBs and describe how advances in genomics, genetics and cell biology have accelerated knowledge of SPB architecture in other fungi, providing insights into microtubule nucleation and other processes conserved across eukaryotes.
