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

We investigated the effect of actin filament barbed end uncapping on Arp23 complex function both in vivo and in vitro. Arp23 complex redistributes rapidly and uniformly to the lamellar edge of activated wild-type platelets and fibroblasts but clusters in marginal actin filament clumps in gelsolin-null cells. Treatment of gelsolin-null platelets with the negative dominant N-WASp C-terminal CA domain has no effect on their residual actin nucleation activity, placing gelsolin actin filament severing, capping, and uncapping function upstream of Arp23 complex nucleation. Actin filaments capped by gelsolin or the gelsolin homolog CapG fail to enhance Arp23 complex nucleation in vitro, but uncapping of the barbed ends of these actin filaments restores their ability to potentiate Arp23 complex nucleation. We conclude that Arp23 complex contribution to actin filament nucleation in platelets and fibroblasts importantly requires free barbed ends generated by severing and uncapping.
