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 topology of the signalling pathway linking the G-protein-coupled receptor agonist lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) to extracellular-signal-regulated kinase activation remains undeciphered. In the present study, we report that analysis of LPA signals at the level of Ras-GTP formation and Ras nucleotide exchange discriminates true mediatory signals from permissive activities that do not participate in signal relay. Hence, whereas pertussis toxin (PTX) treatment impairs stimulation of nucleotide exchange, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition does not compromise LPA-induced acceleration of nucleotide exchange, but instead attenuates basal nucleotide turnover on Ras. Our data indicate that LPA activation of Ras proceeds via PTX-sensitive G(i/o)-proteins and requires a permissive input from basal EGFR activity.
