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

Axon formation is a hallmark of initial neuronal polarization. This process is thought to be regulated by enhanced microtubule stability in the subsequent axon and changes in actin dynamics in the future axonal growth cone. Here, we show that the microtubule end-binding proteins cytoplasmic linker protein (CLIP)-115 and CLIP-170 were enriched in the axonal growth cone and extended into the actin-rich domain of the growth cone. CLIPs were necessary for axon formation and sufficient to induce an axon. The regulation of axonal microtubule stabilization by CLIPs enabled the protrusion of microtubules into the leading edge of the axonal growth cone. Moreover, CLIPs positively regulated growth cone dynamics and restrained actin arc formation, which was necessary for axon growth. In fact, in neurons without CLIP activity, axon formation was restored by actin destabilization or myosin II inhibition. Together, our data suggest that CLIPs enable neuronal polarization by controlling the stabilization of microtubules and growth cone dynamics.
