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

Kinetochores are essential for chromosome segregation in eukaryotes. An important component of kinetochores in opisthokonta is Csm1. However, its function appears to be diversified and, while Csm1 in budding yeast is a component of the monopolin complex mediating mono-orientation of sister kinetochores during meiosis I, the fission yeast homolog Pcs1 prevents merotelic spindle microtubule attachments during mitosis and meiosis II. Here, we have characterized TITAN9 (TTN9), a distantly related Csm1-like protein in the flowering plant Arabidopsis. TTN9 accumulates in mitotic and meiotic tissue and localizes to centromeres throughout the cell cycle. By analyzing proteome-wide TTN9 associated proteins, we identified a substantial subset of the Arabidopsis kinetochore proteome, including DSN1, mirroring known Csm1 interactions in yeast.
