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 ability of polarized cells to initiate and sustain directional responses to extracellular signals is critically dependent on direct communication between spatially organized signalling modules in the membrane and the underlying cytoskeleton. Pioneering work in T cells has shown that the assembly of signalling modules critically depends on the functional compartmentalization of membrane lipids into ordered microdomains or lipid rafts. The significance of rafts in T cell activation lies not only in their ability to recruit the signalling partners that eventually assemble into a mature immunological synapse but also in their ability to regulate actin dynamics and recruit cytoskeletal associated proteins, thereby achieving the structural polarization underlying stability of the synapse-a critical prerequisite for activation to be sustained. Lipid rafts vary quite considerably in size and visualizing the smallest of them in vivo has been challenging. Nonetheless it is now been shown quite convincingly that a surprisingly large proportion-in the order of 50%-of external membrane lipids (chiefly cholesterol and glycosphingolipids) can be dynamically localized in these liquid ordered rafts. Complementary inner leaflet rafts are less well characterized, but contain phosphoinositides as an important functional component that is crucial for regulating the behaviour of the actin cytoskeleton. This paper provides an overview of the interdependency between signalling and cytoskeletal polarization, and in particular considers how regulation of the cytoskeleton plays a crucial role in the consolidation of rafts and their stabilization into the immunological synapse.
