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

We provide the first description of the desmosome network in keratinocytes using a systems level approach. The desmo-adhesome consists of 59 proteins connected by 128 direct interactions and forms different functional subnets. Whilst the structure appears to be extremely robust against random perturbations, network fragmentation analysis suggests that the desmo-adhesome is susceptible to targeted attacks. To confirm this prediction, we applied this model to the autoimmune disease Pemphigus Vulgaris (PV), a paradigm of external perturbation of the desmosome. Our analysis showed that the adaptor protein plakophilin (Pkp) 3 was in the highest percentile group for both connectivity rate and gene expression changes in experimental PV. This observation led us to speculate that Pkp3 was crucial in desmosomal remodelling, and therefore we designed the experiments to verify this hypothesis. Our data demonstrate that, whilst Pkp3 is important in conferring adhesive strength to keratinocytes, it also acts as a central molecule mediating cell-cell detachment induced by PV IgG.
