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

Stereocilia are actin-based protrusions on auditory and vestibular sensory cells that are required for hearing and balance. They convert physical force from sound, head movement or gravity into an electrical signal, a process that is called mechanoelectrical transduction. This function depends on the ability of sensory cells to grow stereocilia of defined lengths. These protrusions form a bundle with a highly precise geometry that is required to detect nanoscale movements encountered in the inner ear. Congenital or progressive stereocilia degeneration causes hearing loss. Thus, understanding stereocilia hair bundle structure, development, and maintenance is pivotal to understanding the pathogenesis of deafness. Stereocilia cores are made from a tightly packed array of parallel, crosslinked actin filaments, the length and stability of which are regulated in part by myosin motors, actin crosslinkers and capping proteins. This review aims to describe stereocilia actin regulation in the context of an emerging "tip turnover" model where actin assembles and disassembles at stereocilia tips while the remainder of the core is exceptionally stable.
