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

The nematode exoskeleton, commonly called the cuticle, is a highly structured extracellular matrix mainly composed of collagen. Secreted collagen molecules from the underlying epidermal cells are cross-linked via their tyrosyl residues. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are required for the cross-linking reaction to produce tyrosyl radicals. The conserved ROS generator enzyme in C. elegans, BLI-3/CeDUOX1, a homolog of dual oxidases (DUOXs), is responsible for production of hydrogen peroxide. The ROS generation system must be properly controlled since ROS are highly reactive molecules that irreversibly inhibit the functions of cellular components such as nucleic acids and proteins. We recently reported that the ROS generation system directed by BLI-3 requires the tetraspanin protein, TSP-15. Herein we outline the process of cuticle development with a focus on the molecular roles of TSP-15 in the BLI-3 system. We also propose the co-occurrence of tetraspanin and ROS generators by convergent evolution.
