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

During mitosis, unattached kinetochores trigger the spindle assembly checkpoint by promoting the assembly of the mitotic checkpoint complex, a heterotetramer comprising Mad2, Cdc20, BubR1, and Bub3. Critical to this process is the kinetochore-mediated catalysis of an intrinsically slow conformational conversion of Mad2 from an open (O-Mad2) inactive state to a closed (C-Mad2) active state bound to Cdc20. These Mad2 conformational changes involve substantial remodeling of the N-terminal β1 strand and C-terminal β7/β8 hairpin. In vitro, the Mad2-interaction motif (MIM) of Cdc20 (Cdc20
