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

Aurora-A is an essential cell-cycle kinase with critical roles in mitotic entry and spindle dynamics. These functions require binding partners such as CEP192 and TPX2, which modulate both kinase activity and localisation of Aurora-A. Here we investigate the structure and role of the centrosomal Aurora-A:CEP192 complex in the wider molecular network. We find that CEP192 wraps around Aurora-A, occupies the binding sites for mitotic spindle-associated partners, and thus competes with them. Comparison of two different Aurora-A conformations reveals how CEP192 modifies kinase activity through the site used for TPX2-mediated activation. Deleting the Aurora-A-binding interface in CEP192 prevents centrosomal accumulation of Aurora-A, curtails its activation-loop phosphorylation, and reduces spindle-bound TPX2:Aurora-A complexes, resulting in error-prone mitosis. Thus, by supplying the pool of phosphorylated Aurora-A necessary for TPX2 binding, CEP192:Aurora-A complexes regulate spindle function. We propose an evolutionarily conserved spatial hierarchy, which protects genome integrity through fine-tuning and correctly localising Aurora-A activity.
