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

Cell surface receptors of the integrin family are pivotal to cell adhesion and migration. The activation state of heterodimeric alphabeta integrins is correlated to the association state of the single-pass alpha and beta transmembrane domains. The association of integrin alphaIIbbeta3 transmembrane domains, resulting in an inactive receptor, is characterized by the asymmetric arrangement of a straight (alphaIIb) and tilted (beta3) helix relative to the membrane in congruence to the dissociated structures. This allows for a continuous association interface centered on helix-helix glycine-packing and an unusual alphaIIb(GFF) structural motif that packs the conserved Phe-Phe residues against the beta3 transmembrane helix, enabling alphaIIb(D723)beta3(R995) electrostatic interactions. The transmembrane complex is further stabilized by the inactive ectodomain, thereby coupling its association state to the ectodomain conformation. In combination with recently determined structures of an inactive integrin ectodomain and an activating talin/beta complex that overlap with the alphabeta transmembrane complex, a comprehensive picture of integrin bi-directional transmembrane signaling has emerged.
