Quantifying Changes in Chromosome Position to Assess Chromokinesin Activity.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 chromokinesin KIF22 (Kid, kinesin-10 family) is the primary generator of polar ejection forces, which contribute to chromosome positioning and alignment in mitotic cells. Assessment of KIF22 function requires quantitative comparison of relative polar ejection forces between experimental conditions. This is facilitated by the generation of monopolar spindles to reduce the impact of bioriented microtubule attachment at kinetochores on chromosome positions and increase the dependence of chromosome positions on chromokinesin activity. Radial profile plots measure the intensity of chromatin signal in concentric circles around the poles of monopolar cells and represent an expedient quantitative measure of relative polar ejection forces. As such, this assay can be used to measure changes in polar ejection forces resulting from chromokinesin depletion or perturbation.
