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

In contrast to lysosomal hydrolytic enzymes, the lysosomal membrane remains poorly characterized. In particular, although the genetic study of cystinosis and sialic acid storage disorders led to the identification of two lysosomal transporters for cystine and sialic acids, respectively, ten years ago, most transporters responsible for exporting lysosomal hydrolysis products to the cytosol are still unknown at the molecular level. However, two lines of investigation recently started to fill this gap in the knowledge of lysosomal biology. First, novel proteomic approaches are now able to provide a reliable inventory of lysosomal membrane proteins. On the other hand, a novel functional approach based on intracellular trafficking mechanisms allows direct transport measurement in whole cells by redirecting recombinant lysosomal transporters to the cell surface. After surveying the current state of knowledge in this field, the review focuses on the sialic acid transporter sialin and shows how recent functional data using the above whole-cell approach shed new light on the pathogenesis of sialic acid storage disorders by revealing the existence of a residual transport activity associated with Salla disease.
