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 nucleus is bordered by a double bilayer nuclear envelope, communicates with the cytoplasm via embedded nuclear pore complexes, and is structurally supported by an underlying nucleoskeleton. The nucleoskeleton includes nuclear intermediate filaments formed by lamin proteins, which provide major structural and mechanical support to the nucleus. However, other structural proteins also contribute to the function of the nucleoskeleton and help connect it to the cytoskeleton. This chapter reviews nucleoskeletal components beyond lamins and summarizes specific methods and strategies useful for analyzing nuclear structural proteins including actin, spectrin, titin, linker of nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complex proteins, and nuclear spindle matrix proteins. These components can localize to highly specific functional subdomains at the nuclear envelope or nuclear interior and can interact either stably or dynamically with a variety of partners. These components confer upon the nucleoskeleton a functional diversity and mechanical resilience that appears to rival the cytoskeleton. To facilitate the exploration of this understudied area of biology, we summarize methods useful for localizing, solubilizing, and immunoprecipitating nuclear structural proteins, and a state-of-the-art method to measure a newly-recognized mechanical property of nucleus.
