Citron Kinase, a mitotic kinase with increasing significance in cancer.
Review in Cell cycle (Georgetown, Tex.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cell division is an essential process required to maintain homeostasis. It must be tightly coordinated to allow the faithful transmission of the genetic material, and its regulation involves numerous partners. While some of them are well-characterized (e.g. Cyclin-Dependent Kinases, Aurora Kinases, …), others are still poorly understood. Citron Kinase (CitK) plays key roles during mitosis and cytokinesis, although its functions remain to be fully elucidated. In addition, its roles are not restricted to cytokinesis, and CitK also comes into play at earlier stages of cell division. Furthermore, emerging evidence suggests a role for CitK during tumorigenesis. Several studies have pointed to the potential of targeting CitK in the context of cancer treatment and hopefully this will bring attention to this largely understudied kinase. This review focuses on the different functions of Citron Kinase throughout the cell cycle to highlight its importance during cell division as well as its significance in cancer and its potential as a target for cancer therapy.
