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

Accurate chromosome segregation requires kinetochores to form robust, load-bearing attachments to dynamic spindle microtubules, mediated primarily by the Ndc80 complex. Two receptors, Dsn1 and Cnn1 (CENP-T), recruit multiple copies of Ndc80c to the kinetochore, but whether they confer functional differences to Ndc80 behavior is unclear. We previously demonstrated that kinetochore components co-purifying with the yeast Dsn1 protein can maintain persistent load-bearing attachments that track with microtubule tip growth and shortening. Using an optical trapping-based assay, we show that Cnn1 purifications also sustain dynamic microtubule attachments under load. Mutation of a conserved region within the disordered N-terminal tail of Cnn1 weakened attachment strength
