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 Nedd4 family of HECT domain-containing E3 ligases ubiquitinate many transcription factors and signaling proteins, and their activity is tightly regulated. Normally, intramolecular interactions curb the catalytic activity of the HECT domain, but these can be broken by the binding of PY motifs, found on substrate molecules and adaptors, to the WW domains characteristic of this E3 ligase family. This raises the prospect of substrates automatically activating the ligases, frustrating the purpose of ligase regulation. Here we show that soluble protein substrates and adaptors such as α arrestins, even with multiple PY elements, cannot activate ligase activity efficiently. However, we found that polymerization or membrane tethering of these substrates dramatically increases the ligase activity both
