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

Studies are presented characterizing platelet CDCrel-1, a protein expressed to high levels by megakaryocytes and belonging to a family of conserved proteins, termed septin. Septin filaments originally were identified in yeast as essential for budding but have become increasingly associated with processes in higher eukaryotic cells involving active membrane movement such as cytokinesis and vesicle trafficking. Direct proof of an in vivo function for septins in higher eukaryotes is limited to the characterization of the Drosophila septin, termed PNUT. We present studies identifying platelet CDCrel-1 as a protein kinase substrate in the presence of known platelet agonists. The immunopurification of CDCrel-1 revealed it to be part of a macromolecular complex containing a protein involved in platelet secretion, syntaxin 4. Moreover, CDCrel-1 was localized in situ to areas surrounding platelet-storage granules. The relevance of CDCrel-1 to normal platelet function was established with the characterization of platelets from a CDCrel-1(Null) mouse. As compared with platelets from wild-type littermates, CDCrel-1(Null) platelets aggregate and release stored [14C]serotonin in the presence of subthreshold levels of collagen. These results provide new insights into the mechanisms regulating platelet secretion and identify platelet septins as a protein family contributing to membrane trafficking within the megakaryocyte and platelet.
