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

Unlike apoptosis, necrotic cell death is characterized by marked loss of plasma membrane integrity. Leakage of cytoplasmic material to the extracellular space contributes to cell demise, and is the cause of acute inflammatory responses, which typically accompany necrosis. The mechanisms underlying plasma membrane damage during necrotic cell death are not well understood. We report that endocytosis is critically required for the execution of necrosis. Depletion of the key endocytic machinery components dynamin, synaptotagmin and endophilin suppresses necrotic neurodegeneration induced by diverse genetic and environmental insults in C. elegans. We used genetically encoded fluorescent markers to monitor the formation and fate of specific types of endosomes during cell death in vivo. Strikingly, we find that the number of early and recycling endosomes increases sharply and transiently upon initiation of necrosis. Endosomes subsequently coalesce around the nucleus and disintegrate during the final stage of necrosis. Interfering with kinesin-mediated endosome trafficking impedes cell death. Endocytosis synergizes with autophagy and lysosomal proteolytic mechanisms to facilitate necrotic neurodegeneration. These findings demonstrate a prominent role for endocytosis in cellular destruction during neurodegeneration, which is likely conserved in metazoans.
