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

It has recently been proposed that mitotic chromosomes transport certain cytoskeletal proteins to the metaphase plate so that these proteins are able to subsequently participate in the assembly of the anaphase spindle and the cleavage furrow. To understand how such proteins accomplish their dual chromosomal: cytoskeletal role, we have begun a molecular and functional analysis of the inner centromere proteins (INCENPs), founder members of the class of "chromosome passenger proteins". cDNA clones encoding the open reading frames of the two chicken INCENPs were recovered. The predicted proteins, class I INCENP (96,357 D) and class II INCENP (100,931 D) are novel, and differ from each other by the inclusion of a 38-codon insert within the class II coding region. Transient expression of the chicken INCENPs in mammalian cells confirms that the signals and structures required for the transfer of these proteins from chromosomes to cytoskeleton are evolutionarily conserved. Furthermore, these studies reveal that INCENP association with the cytoskeleton is complex. The amino-terminal 42-amino acid residues are required for transfer of the INCENPs from the chromosomes to the mitotic spindle at anaphase, but not for binding of INCENPs to cytoplasmic microtubules. In contrast, an internal 200 amino acid coiled-coil domain was required for association with microtubules, but dispensable for spindle association. These experiments suggest that proteins required for assembly of specialized cytoskeletal structures during mitosis from anaphase onwards might be sequestered in the nucleus throughout interphase to keep them from disrupting the interphase cytoskeleton, and to ensure their correct positioning during mitosis.
