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 Extracellularly Regulated Kinase/Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase (ERK/MAPK) signaling pathway is a critical regulator of cellular processes in adult and developing tissues. Depending on the cellular context, MAPK cascade can act as a rheostat, a switch, or an oscillator. The highly conserved structure of the cascade does not imply a rigid function, as was suggested by the early mathematical models of MAPK signaling, and can instead produce a wide range of input-output maps. Given a large number of pathway components and modes of regulation, it is essential to establish experimental systems that will allow both manipulating the MAPK cascade and monitoring its dynamics. The terminal patterning system in the Drosophila embryo appears to be ideally suited for this purpose. Our recent experiments characterized dynamics of the MAPK phosphorylation gradient in the terminal system and proposed that it is regulated by a cascade of diffusion-trapping modules. Here we discuss a biophysical model that can describe the observed dynamics and guide future experiments for exploring the relative importance of multiple layers of MAPK cascade regulation.
