Counting actin in contractile rings reveals novel contributions of cofilin and type II myosins to fission yeast cytokinesis.
Article in Molecular biology of the cell, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Cytokinesis by animals, fungi, and amoebas depends on actomyosin contractile rings, which are stabilized by continuous turnover of actin filaments. Remarkably little is known about the amount of polymerized actin in contractile rings, so we used low concentrations of GFP-Lifeact to count total polymerized actin molecules in the contractile rings of live fission yeast cells. Contractile rings of wild-type cells accumulated polymerized actin molecules at 4900/min to a peak number of ∼198,000 followed by a loss of actin at 5400/min throughout ring constriction. In
