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

A-type lamins are components of the nuclear lamina, a filamentous network of the nuclear envelope in metazoans that supports nuclear architecture. In addition, lamin A/C can also be found in the interior of the nucleus. This nucleoplasmic lamin pool is soluble in physiological buffer, depends on the presence of the lamin-binding protein, lamina-associated polypeptide 2α (LAP2α) and regulates cell cycle progression in tissue progenitor cells. ΔK32 mutations in A-type lamins cause severe congenital muscle disease in humans and a muscle maturation defect in Lmna(ΔK32/ΔK32) knock-in mice. Mutant ΔK32 lamin A/C protein levels were reduced and all mutant lamin A/C was soluble and mislocalized to the nucleoplasm. To test the role of LAP2α in nucleoplasmic ΔK32 lamin A/C regulation and functions, we deleted LAP2α in Lmna(ΔK32/ΔK32) knock-in mice. In double mutant mice the Lmna(ΔK32/ΔK32)-linked muscle defect was unaffected. LAP2α interacted with mutant lamin A/C, but unlike wild-type lamin A/C, the intranuclear localization of ΔK32 lamin A/C was not affected by loss of LAP2α. In contrast, loss of LAP2α in Lmna(ΔK32/ΔK32) mice impaired the regulation of tissue progenitor cells as in lamin A/C wild-type animals. These data indicate that a LAP2α-independent assembly defect of ΔK32 lamin A/C is the predominant cause of the mouse pathology, whereas the LAP2α-linked functions of nucleoplasmic lamin A/C in the regulation of tissue progenitor cells are not affected in Lmna(ΔK32/ΔK32) mice.
