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

Lymphocytes lacking the TRPM7 (transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily M, member 7) dual function ion channel/protein kinase exhibit a unique phenotype: they are unable to proliferate in regular media, but proliferate normally in media supplemented with 10-15 mM extracellular Mg(2+). Here, we have analyzed the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenotype. We find that upon transition from proliferation-supporting Mg(2+)-supplemented media to regular media, TRPM7-deficient cells rapidly downregulate their rate of growth, resulting in a secondary arrest in proliferation. The downregulated growth rate of transitioning cells is associated with a deactivation of signaling downstream from phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and expression of constitutively active p110 phosphoinositide 3-kinase is sufficient to support growth and proliferation of TRPM7-deficient cells in regular media. Together, these observations indicate that TRPM7 channels are required for sustained phosphoinositide 3-kinase-dependent growth signaling and therefore, that TRPM7 is positioned alongside phosphoinositide 3-kinases as a central regulator of lymphocyte growth and proliferation.
