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

Local actin assembly is associated with sites of exocytosis in processes ranging from phagocytosis to compensatory endocytosis. Here, we examine whether the trigger for actin-coat assembly around exocytosing Xenopus egg cortical granules is 'compartment mixing'--the union of the contents of the plasma membrane with that of the secretory granule membrane. Consistent with this model, compartment mixing occurs on cortical granule-plasma membrane fusion and is required for actin assembly. Compartment mixing triggers actin assembly, at least in part, through diacylglycerol (DAG), which incorporates into the cortical granule membranes from the plasma membrane after cortical granule-plasma membrane fusion. DAG, in turn, directs long-term recruitment of protein kinase Cbeta (PKCbeta) to exocytosing cortical granules, where it is required for activation of Cdc42 localized on the cortical granules. The results demonstrate that mixing of two membrane compartments can direct local actin assembly and indicate that this process is harnessed during Xenopus egg cortical granule exocytosis to drive compensatory endocytosis.
