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

Secretory proteins are subjected to a stringent endoplasmic reticulum-based quality control system that distinguishes aberrant from correctly folded proteins. The cytoplasmic peptide:N-glycanase cleaves oligosaccharides from misfolded glycoproteins and prepares them for degradation by the 26 S proteasome. In contrast to abundant in vitro data on its enzymatic function, the in vivo relevance of peptide:N-glycanase activity remains unclear. Here we show that the PNG1 ortholog from the filamentous ascomycete Neurospora crassa is an essential protein, and its deletion results in strong polarity defects. PNG1 and its predicted binding partner RAD23 have distinct functions in N. crassa and are involved in cell wall integrity and DNA repair, respectively. Moreover, wild type PNG1 has substitutions in essential catalytic amino acids, and its deglycosylation activity is lost. These substitutions are conserved in many PNG1 orthologs of the fungal kingdom, implying a so far unrecognized enzyme-independent function of PNG1 that may only become apparent in highly polar cells such as fungal hyphae.
