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

Artificial cells can shed new light on the molecular basis for life and hold potential for new chemical technologies. Inspired by how nature dynamically regulates its membrane compartments, we aim to repurpose the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) to generate complex membrane architectures as suitable scaffolds for artificial cells. Purified ESCRT-III components perform topological transformations on giant unilamellar vesicles to create complex "vesicles-within-a-vesicle" architectures resembling the compartmentalization in eukaryotic cells. Thus far, the proposed mechanisms for this activity are based on how assembly and disassembly of ESCRT-III on the membrane drives deformation. Here we demonstrate the existence of a negative feedback mechanism from membrane mechanics that regulates ESCRT-III remodeling activity. Intraluminal vesicle (ILV) formation removes excess membrane area, increasing tension, which in turn suppresses downstream ILV formation. This mechanism for in vitro regulation of ESCRT-III activity may also have important implications for its in vivo functions.
