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

cis-SNARE complexes (anchored in one membrane) are disassembled by Sec17p (alpha-SNAP) and Sec18p (NSF), permitting the unpaired SNAREs to assemble in trans. We now report a direct assay of trans-SNARE complex formation during yeast vacuole docking. SNARE complex assembly and fusion is promoted by high concentrations of the SNARE Vam7p or Nyv1p or by addition of HOPS (homotypic fusion and vacuole protein sorting), a Ypt7p (Rab)-effector complex with a Sec1/Munc18-family subunit. Inhibitors that target Ypt7p, HOPS, or key regulatory lipids prevent trans-SNARE complex assembly and ensuing fusion. Strikingly, the lipid ligand MED (myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate effector domain) or elevated concentrations of Sec17p, which can displace HOPS from SNARE complexes, permit full trans-SNARE pairing but block fusion. These findings suggest that efficient fusion requires trans-SNARE complex associations with factors such as HOPS and subsequent regulated lipid rearrangements.
