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

Wnt/β-catenin signalling is initiated by a ternary Wnt-Frizzled (FZD)-LDL receptor-related protein (LRP) 5/6 binding event. The resulting conformational changes in the FZD and LRP5/6 receptors promote the assembly of an intracellular signalosome driven by Dishevelled and Axin co-polymerization. Recent evidence suggests that the FZD receptor and LRP5/6 participate in the assembly of this signalosome by forming regulatory scaffolds for stabilizing Dishevelled and Axin adapters. In this review, we focus on the contributions of Wnts and their receptors in the assembly of the signalosome. We present an emerging model, which unifies Wnt receptor oligomerization with intracellular signalosome formation, and then discuss how FZD receptors might be targeted to either disrupt or enhance their capacity as a dynamic sensor of Wnt binding.
