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

Porosomes are supramolecular, cup-shaped lipoprotein structures at the cell plasma membrane, where membrane-bound secretory vesicles dock and fuse to release intravesicular contents to the outside during cell secretion. The porosome opening to the outside ranges from 150 nm in diameter in acinar cells of the exocrine pancreas to 12 nm in neurons. In the past decade, the composition of the porosome, its structure and dynamics at nanometer resolution in real time, and its functional reconstitution into an artificial lipid membrane have been described. Discovery of the universal secretory machinery in cells, the porosome, came as no surprise since porosome-like "canaliculi" structures for secretion from human platelets, the secretory machinery in single-cell organisms like the secretion apparatus in bacteria and Toxoplasma gondii, and the contractile vacuole in paramecium have been demonstrated. In this review, the discovery of the porosome complex and the molecular mechanism of its function and how this information provides a new understanding of cell secretion are discussed.
