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

Gaucher disease (GD), the most common lysosomal storage disorder of humans, is caused by mutations in the gene coding for the enzyme glucocerebrosidase (GCase). Clinical manifestations vary among patients with the three types of GD, and phenotypic heterogeneity occurs even among patients with identical mutations. To gain insight into why phenotypic heterogeneity occurs in GD, we investigated mechanisms underlying the net loss of GCase catalytic activity in cultured skin fibroblasts derived from patients with the three types of GD. The findings indicate that the loss of catalytic activity of GCase correlates with its quantitative reduction, rather than a decrease in functional capacity of mutant enzyme. Use of a proteasome inhibitor, lactacystin, resulted in increased expression of GCase, suggesting a mechanism of protein degradation in GD. Furthermore, reduced binding of GCase to TCP1 ring complex (TRiC), a regulator of correct protein folding, may result in defective maturation of nascent GCase in GD cells. Additionally, increased interaction between GCase and c-Cbl, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, may be involved in the degradation and loss of GCase in GD. The findings suggest that specific molecular mediators involved in GCase maturation and degradation could be responsible for phenotypic variation among patients with the same genotypes and that these mediators could be therapeutically targeted to increase GCase activity in patients with GD.
