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

The conventional kinesin (kinesin-1) molecular motor is a prototypical member of the kinesin superfamily. It can processively step on microtubules toward the plus end by hydrolyzing ATP molecules, performing the biological function of shuttling cargos in cells. Its dynamics have been thoroughly studied using various methods including biochemical measurement, single molecule imaging, single molecule optical trapping, and so on. While most of the experiments yielded consistent results on the dynamics of the motor, a lot of conflicting experimental results have also been presented. Here, a brief review is given of the diverse conflicting experimental results. Furthermore, a model for the chemomechanical coupling of the motor is briefly reviewed, which can consistently and quantitatively explain these conflicting experimental results in addition to the other experimental results. A consistent explanation of the diverse conflicting experimental results with the same model is an essential criterion for determining the correctness of the model.
