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

This paper reviews recent work in our laboratory on the mechanism of calcium-triggered exocytosis. Upon echinoderm egg fertilization, cortical secretory vesicle exocytosis is massive and synchronous. By combining physiological and molecular analyses with a variety of purified membrane isolates containing secretory vesicles that fuse to the plasma membrane or each other, we have characterized the final steps of this calcium-triggered exocytosis. Our kinetic analysis led to a functional definition of the fusion complex whose activation by calcium follows Poisson statistics. The properties of this complex are compared with the properties of the heterotrimeric SNARE protein complex that is present in the cortical vesicle system. Our data do not support the hypothesis that this particular heterotrimeric complex is by itself the biological fusogen.
