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

A-type lamins are components of the peripheral nuclear lamina but also localize in the nuclear interior in a complex with lamina-associated polypeptide (LAP) 2α. Loss of LAP2α and nucleoplasmic lamins in wild-type cells increases cell proliferation, but in cells expressing progerin (a mutant lamin A that causes Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome), low LAP2α levels result in proliferation defects. Here, the aim was to understand the molecular mechanism governing how relative levels of LAP2α, progerin and nucleoplasmic lamins affect cell proliferation. Cells from progeria patients and inducible progerin-expressing cells expressing low levels of progerin proliferate faster than wild-type or lamin A-expressing control cells, and ectopic expression of LAP2α impairs proliferation. In contrast, cells expressing high levels of progerin and lacking lamins in the nuclear interior proliferate more slowly, and ectopic LAP2α expression enhances proliferation. However, simultaneous expression of LAP2α and wild-type lamin A or an assembly-deficient lamin A mutant restored the nucleoplasmic lamin A pool in these cells and abolished the growth-promoting effect of LAP2α. Our data show that LAP2α promotes or inhibits proliferation of progeria cells depending on the level of A-type lamins in the nuclear interior.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.
