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 to repair membrane damage is conserved across eukaryotic cells and is necessary for the cells to survive a variety of physiological and pathological membrane disruptions. Membrane repair is mediated by rapid Ca(2+)-triggered exocytosis of various intracellular vesicles, such as lysosomes and enlargeosomes, which lead to the formation of a membrane patch that reseals the membrane lesion. Recent findings suggest a crucial role for dysferlin in this repair process in muscle, possibly as a Ca(2+) sensor that triggers vesicle fusion. The importance of membrane repair is highlighted by the genetic disease, dysferlinopathy, in which the primary defect is the loss of Ca(2+)-regulated membrane repair due to dysferlin deficiency. Future research on dysferlin and its interacting partners will enhance the understanding of this important process and provide novel avenues to potential therapies.
