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

Giardia is a flagellated protozoan parasite that has to face different microenvironments during its life cycle in order to survive. All cells exchange materials with the extracellular medium through the reciprocal processes of endocytosis and secretion. Unlike more evolved cells, Giardia lacks a defined endosomal/lysosomal system, but instead possesses peripheral vacuoles that play roles in endocytosis, degradation, recycling, and secretion of proteins during growth and differentiation of the parasite. This review focuses on recent reports defining the role of different molecules involved in protein trafficking to the peripheral vacuoles, and discusses possible mechanisms of receptor recycling. Since Giardia is an early-branching protist, the study of this parasite may lead to a clearer understanding of the minimal machinery required for protein transport in eukaryotic cells.
