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

Protein O-glycosylation is the attachment of carbohydrate structures to the oxygen atom in the hydroxyl group of Serine and Threonine residues. This post-translational modification is commonly found on the majority of proteins trafficking through the secretory pathway and is reported to influence protein characteristics such as folding, secretion, stability, solubility, oligomerization and intracellular localization. In addition, O-glycosylation is essential for cell-cell interactions, protein-protein interactions and many biological processes, such as stress response, immunization, phosphorylation, ubiquitination, cell division, metabolism and cell signaling. The availability of sequenced genomes and genetic tools to create mutants with clear phenotypes makes insects an interesting model system to study O-glycosylation. In this review, we provide an overview of the current knowledge of O-glycosylation, mainly obtained from the model organism Drosophila melanogaster, with a focus on the synthesis and biological roles of the common O-glycans in insects.
