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

Cellular signaling represents an evolution of biological systems to sense external stimuli and communicate extracellular microenvironment to the intracellular compartments. The processes underlying molecular signaling have been widely studied due to their important cellular functions. There are numerous techniques available to quantitate the different molecules involved in cellular processes. Among them, calcium is a ubiquitous signaling molecule involved in many biological pathways. Over time the methods to measure intracellular calcium have advanced to better understand its role as a second messenger. In this chapter, we introduce a method to study a single cilium, a mechanosensor that elicits a calcium signaling cascade. To successfully observe the calcium changes in this thin cylindrical-like projection from the cell surface, we utilize a genetically encoded sensor with a high spatial and temporal resolution. In addition, the probe must be localized to the ciliary compartment in order to observe the intraciliary calcium signaling dynamics. To this end, a cilium targeting genetically encoded indicator is used to observe calcium fluxes in both cytoplasm and cilioplasm.
