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

Infantile-onset Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (INCL) is a severe pediatric neurodegenerative disorder produced by mutations in the gene encoding palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1 (Ppt1). This enzyme is responsible for the removal of a palmitate post-translational modification from an unknown set of substrate proteins. To better understand the function of Ppt1 in neurons, we performed an unbiased dominant loss-of-function genetic modifier screen in Drosophila using a previously characterized Ppt1 gain-of-function system. The enhancers and suppressors identified in our screen make novel connections between Ppt1 and genes involved in cellular trafficking and the modulation of synaptic growth. We further support the relevance of our screen by demonstrating that Garland cells from Ppt1 loss-of-function mutants have defects in endocytic trafficking. Endocytic tracer uptake and ultrastructural analysis of these non-neuronal cells points to Ppt1 playing a role in modulating the early stages of vesicle formation. This work lays the groundwork for further experimental exploration of these processes to better understand their contributions to the INCL disease process.
