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

To reconcile the observed selectivity and the high rate of translocation of cargo-importin complexes through nuclear pores, we propose that the core of the nuclear pore complex is blocked by a metastable network of phenylalanine and glycine nucleoporins. Although the network arrests the unfacilitated passage of objects larger than its mesh size, cargo-importin complexes act as catalysts that reduce the free energy barrier between the cross-linked and the dissociated states of the Nups, and open the network. Using Brownian dynamics simulations we calculate the distribution of passage times through the network for inert particles and cargo-importin complexes of different sizes and discuss the implications of our results for experiments on translocation of proteins through the nuclear pore complex.
