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

We discuss the diffusion of clusters of integrins (and other similar membrane proteins) on a cell membrane with a cortical cytoskeleton. We argue that protein clusters--in contrast with normal oligomers, which are forced to pass through cytoskeletal barriers all at once--should be treated essentially as many-legged random walkers that can pass through a cytoskeletal barrier by putting one leg at a time through the fence. We present the mathematics that should describe the phenomenon, which result in a two-parameter model of diffusion that should apply to any cluster size. We also perform and discuss numerical simulations of the effect in the erythrocyte model system.
