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

Neurotransmitter release is achieved through the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the neuronal plasma membrane (exocytosis). Vesicles are then retrieved from the plasma membrane (endocytosis). It was hypothesized more than 3 decades ago that endosomes participate in vesicle recycling, constituting a slow endocytosis pathway required especially after prolonged stimulation. This recycling model predicts that newly endocytosed vesicles fuse with an endosome, which sorts (organizes) the molecules and buds exocytosis-competent vesicles. We analyzed here the endosome function using hippocampal neurons, isolated nerve terminals (synaptosomes), and PC12 cells by stimulated emission depletion microscopy, photooxidation EM, and several conventional microscopy assays. Surprisingly, we found that endosomal sorting is a rapid pathway, which appeared to be involved in the recycling of the initial vesicles to be released on stimulation, the readily releasable pool. In agreement with the endosomal model, the vesicle composition changed after endocytosis, with the newly formed vesicles being enriched in plasma membrane proteins. Vesicle proteins were organized in clusters both in the plasma membrane (on exocytosis) and in the endosome. In the latter compartment, they segregated from plasma membrane components in a process that is likely important for sorting/budding of newly developed vesicles from the endosome.
