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 cell's ability to establish polarization is one of the key steps in directional migration. Upon the addition of a chemoattractant, N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), neutrophils rapidly develop a front end marked by a wide and dense actin network which is a feature of cell polarization. Despite a general understanding of bi-directional crosstalk between endocytosis and polarization, it remains unclear how clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) induced by chemoattractant binding to formyl peptide receptor (FPR) affects neutrophil polarization. In this work, we characterized the spatial organization of FPR and clathrin-coated pits (CCPs), the functional unit of CME, with and without fMLP and found that fMLP induced different distributions of FPR and CCPs. We further found that cells had impaired polarization induced by fMLP when CME is inhibited by small molecule inhibitors. Under these conditions, pERK, pAkt
