In one paragraph

Review in The Biochemical journal, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 51 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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 endomembrane system in mammalian cells has evolved over the past two billion years from a simple endocytic pathway in a single-celled primordial ancestor to complex networks supporting multicellular structures that form metazoan tissue and organ systems. The increased organellar complexity of metazoan cells requires additional trafficking machinery absent in yeast or other unicellular organisms to maintain organ homoeostasis and to process the signals that control proliferation, differentiation or the execution of cell death programmes. The PACS (phosphofurin acidic cluster sorting) proteins are one such family of multifunctional membrane traffic regulators that mediate organ homoeostasis and have important roles in diverse pathologies and disease states. This review summarizes our current knowledge of the PACS proteins, including their structure and regulation in cargo binding, their genetics, their roles in secretory and endocytic pathway traffic, interorganellar communication and how cell-death signals reprogramme the PACS proteins to regulate apoptosis. We also summarize our current understanding of how PACS genes are dysregulated in cancer and how viral pathogens ranging from HIV-1 to herpesviruses have evolved to usurp the PACS sorting machinery to promote virus assembly, viral spread and immunoevasion.
