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

Profilins belong to a family of small G-actin binding proteins which are thought to assist in F-actin elongation at the leading edge of migrating cells through their interactions with a host of actin-binding proteins including Ena (enabled)/VASP (vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein). Profilin's interactions with the major actin regulators have been studied almost exclusively using biochemical methods. Therefore spatiotemporal features of these protein-protein interactions have not been resolved so far. In this paper, we for the first time demonstrate the feasibility of GFP-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) technique to detect VASP's interaction with profilin-1, a ubiquitously expressed member of profilin family of genes. Specifically, we performed acceptor photobleaching FRET in MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells to show prominent VASP-Pfn1 interaction at the membrane ruffles near the leading edge.
