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

Cilia are evolutionarily conserved, microtubule-based organelles characterized by their ultrastructures and diverse functional roles, including developmental signaling, mechanosensation, and fluid propulsion. They are widely distributed across cell surfaces and play crucial roles in cell cycle regulation and tissue homeostasis. Despite advances in studying their molecular regulation and functions, demonstrating the precise ultrastructure of cilia remains a challenge. Recent novel microscopy techniques, such as super-resolution microscopy and volume electron microscopy, are revolutionizing our understanding of their architecture and mechanochemical signaling. By integrating findings from different methodologies, this review highlights how these advances bridge basic research and clinical applications and provide a comprehensive understanding of the structural organization, functional mechanisms, and dynamic changes of cilia.
