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

ROCKII kinase activity is known to be regulated by Rho GTPase binding; however, the context-specific regulation of ROCKII is not clearly understood. We pursued the C-terminal PH domain as a candidate domain for regulating ROCKII function. A proteomics-based screen identified potential ROCKII signaling partners, a large number of which were associated with membrane dynamics. We used subcellular fractionation to demonstrate that ROCKII is localized to both the plasma membrane and internal endosomal membrane fractions, and then used microscopy to show that the C-terminal PH domain can localize to internal or peripheral membrane compartments, depending on the cellular context. Co-immunoprecipitation demonstrated that Dynamin1 is a novel ROCKII binding partner. Furthermore, blocking Dynamin function with a dominant negative mutant mimicked the effect of inhibiting ROCK activity on the actin cytoskeleton. Our data suggest that ROCKII is regulated by localization to specific membrane compartments and its novel binding partner, Dynamin1.
