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

Nα-terminal acetylation (Nt-acetylation) occurs very frequently and is found in most proteins in eukaryotes. Despite the pervasiveness and universality of Nt-acetylation, its general functions in terms of physiological outcomes remain largely elusive. However, several recent studies have revealed that Nt-acetylation has a significant impact on protein stability, activity, folding patterns, cellular localization, etc. In addition, Nt-acetylation marks specific proteins for degradation by a branch of the N-end rule pathway, a subset of the ubiquitin-mediated proteolytic system. The N-end rule associates a protein's in vivo half-life with its N-terminal residue or modifications on its N-terminus. This review provides a current understanding of intracellular proteolysis control by Nt-acetylation and the N-end rule pathway.
