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

Mechanical forces are increasingly recognized as central factors in the regulation of tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis. Central to the transduction of mechanical information into biochemical signaling is the contractile actomyosin cytoskeleton. Fluctuations in actomyosin contraction are sensed by tension sensitive systems at the interface between actomyosin and cell adhesion complexes. We review the current knowledge about the mechanical coupling of cell-cell junctions to the cytoskeleton and highlight the central role of α-catenin in this linkage. We assemble current knowledge about α-catenin's regulation by tension and about its interactions with a diversity of proteins. We present a model in which α-catenin is a force-regulated platform for a machinery of proteins that orchestrates local cortical remodeling in response to force. Finally, we highlight recently described fundamental processes in tissue morphogenesis and argue where and how this α-catenin-dependent cadherin mechanotransduction may be involved.
