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 Rip homotypic interaction motif (RHIM) is a short, non-globular sequence stretch that mediates a key interaction of mammalian necroptosis signaling. In order to understand its unusual oligomerization properties, we set out to trace the evolutionary origins of the RHIM motif by identifying distantly related protein motifs that might employ the same binding mode. The RHIM motif was found to be related to the prion-forming domain of the HET-s protein, which oligomerizes by forming structurally well-characterized fibrils and is involved in fungal heterokaryon incompatibility. This evolutionary relationship explains the recently reported propensity of mammalian RHIM motifs to form amyloid fibrils, but suggests that these fibrils have a different structural architecture than currently assumed. These findings, together with numerous observations of RHIM-like motifs in immunity proteins from a wide range of species, provide insight to the modern innate immunity pathways in animals, plants and fungi.
