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

Primary cilia are hair-like organelles that play crucial roles in vertebrate development, organogenesis and when dysfunctional result in pleiotropic human genetic disorders called ciliopathies, characterized by overlapping phenotypes, such as renal and hepatic cysts, skeletal defects, retinal degeneration and central nervous system malformations. Primary cilia act as communication hubs to transfer extracellular signals into intracellular responses and are essential for Hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction in mammals. Despite the renewed interest in this ancient organelle of growing biomedical importance, the molecular mechanisms that trigger cilia formation, extension and ciliary signal transduction are still not fully understood. Here we provide, for the first time, evidence that the deubiquitinase ubiquitin-specific protease-14 (Usp14), a major regulator of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS), controls ciliogenesis, cilia elongation and Hh signal transduction. Moreover, we show that pharmacological inhibition of Usp14 positively affects Hh signal transduction in a model of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. These findings provide new insight into the spectrum of action of UPS in cilia biology and may provide novel opportunities for therapeutic intervention in human conditions associated with ciliary dysfunction.
