A new view of how cytoplasmic viscosity affects microtubule dynamics.
Article in Developmental cell, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
How the physical nature of the cytoplasm shapes cellular processes has been increasingly studied in recent years. Work in this issue demonstrates that cytoplasmic viscosity affects the dynamic instability of microtubules. Surprisingly, both polymerization and depolymerization slow with increasing viscosity. This raises interesting questions for future work.
