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

GRASPs are proteins involved in cell processes that seem paradoxical: responsible for shaping the Golgi cisternae and involved in unconventional secretion mechanisms that bypass the Golgi. Despite its physiological relevance, there is still a considerable lack of studies on full-length GRASPs. Our group has previously reported an unexpected behavior of the full-length GRASP from the fungus C. neoformans: its intrinsically-disordered characteristic. Here, we generalize this finding by showing that it is also observed in the GRASP from S. cerevisae (Grh1), which strongly suggests it might be a general property within the GRASP family. Furthermore, Grh1 is also able to form amyloid-like fibrils either upon heating or when submitted to changes in the dielectric constant of its surroundings, a condition that is experienced by the protein when in close contact with membranes of cell compartments, such as the Golgi apparatus. Intrinsic disorder and fibril formation can thus be two structural properties exploited by GRASP during its functional cycle.
