A 60-kDa plant microtubule-associated protein promotes the growth and stabilization of neurotubules in vitro.

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
The search for microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) in plants is relatively recent. In particular, the "classical MAPs," which stimulate the polymerization and stabilization of microtubules, have only been examined in heterogeneous fractions. As a first step in dissecting the role of individual MAPs, we have chromatographically purified a single 60-kDa protein from a carrot MAP fraction and analyzed its effects on tubulin assembly. MAP60 promoted the formation of long, morphologically regular brain microtubules in vitro, an effect inhibited by preincubation of the MAP with affinity-purified antibodies against this protein. MAP60 also increased the stability of microtubules to dilution and significantly enhanced cold stability to the normally cold-sensitive neurotubules. These in vitro properties are consistent with a role for MAP60 in regulating the turnover/assembly of dynamic plant microtubules in vivo.
