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

Neurosecretory vesicles undergo docking and priming before Ca(2+)-dependent fusion with the plasma membrane. Although de novo synthesis of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) is required for exocytosis, its precise contribution is still unclear. Here we show that inhibition of the p110δ isoform of PI3-kinase by IC87114 promotes a transient increase in PtdIns(4,5)P(2), leading to a potentiation of exocytosis in chromaffin cells. We then exploit this pathway to examine the effect of a transient PtdIns(4,5)P(2) increase on neurosecretory vesicles behaviour, outside the context of a secretagogue stimulation. Our results demonstrate that a rise in PtdIns(4,5)P(2) is sufficient to promote the mobilization and recruitment of secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane via Cdc42-mediated actin reorganization. PtdIns(4,5)P(2), therefore, orchestrates the actin-based conveyance of secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane.
