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

In budding yeast, the Rho-family GTPase Cdc42 has several functions that depend on its subcellular localization and the cell cycle stage. During bud formation, Cdc42 localizes to the plasma membrane at the bud tip and bud neck where it carries out functions in actin polymerization, spindle positioning, and exocytosis to ensure proper polarity development. Recent live-cell imaging analysis revealed a novel localization of Cdc42 to a discrete intracellular focus associated with the vacuole and nuclear envelope. The discovery of this novel Cdc42 localization led to the identification of a new function in ESCRT-mediated nuclear envelope sealing. However, other aspects of this intracellular localization and its functional implications were not explored. Here, we further characterize the Cdc42 focus and present several novel observations that suggest possible additional Cdc42 functions at the nucleus, including nucleus-vacuole junction formation, nuclear envelope tethering, nuclear migration, and nucleopodia formation.
