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

Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) serve as the gateway of the cell nucleus. These macromolecular assemblies form selective aqueous translocation channels permitting the free diffusion of small molecules, as well as receptor-mediated transport of large cargoes. Over the past decade, major progress has been made in both the structural determination of individual nucleoporins and subcomplexes by X-ray crystallography and in the structural analysis of the entire NPC by cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET). The metazoan NPC structure from Xenopus laevis oocytes was recently resolved up to 20 Å by combining cryo-ET with advanced image processing techniques, revealing for the first time the architecture of the central channel. Here, we discuss the structure of the Xenopus laevis NPC and consider future perspectives that will eventually allow reconstructing the scaffold and gate of the NPC with higher resolution and identifying its transport-relevant regions. This will eventually allow us to describe the structure of the NPC 'in action'.
