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

SIMPLE, also known as LITAF, EET1 and PIG7, was originally identified based on its transcriptional upregulation by estrogen, p53, lipopolysaccharide or a microbial cell-wall component. Missense mutations in SIMPLE cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), and altered SIMPLE expression is associated with cancer, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. Despite increasing evidence linking SIMPLE to human diseases, the biological function of SIMPLE is unknown and the pathogenic mechanism of SIMPLE mutations remains elusive. Our recent study reveals that SIMPLE is a functional partner of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery in the regulation of endosome-to-lysosome trafficking and intracellular signaling. Our results indicate that CMT-linked SIMPLE mutants are loss-of-function mutants which act dominantly to impair endosomal trafficking and signaling attenuation. We propose that endosomal trafficking and signaling dysregulation is a key pathogenic mechanism in CMT and other diseases that involve SIMPLE dysfunction.
