NPHP proteins are binding partners of nucleoporins at the base of the primary cilium.
Article in PloS one, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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
Cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the surface of eukaryotic cells to generate motility and to sense and respond to environmental cues. In order to carry out these functions, the complement of proteins in the cilium must be specific for the organelle. Regulation of protein entry into primary cilia has been shown to utilize mechanisms and components of nuclear gating, including nucleoporins of the nuclear pore complex (NPC). We show that nucleoporins also localize to the base of motile cilia on the surface of trachea epithelial cells. How nucleoporins are anchored at the cilium base has been unclear as transmembrane nucleoporins, which anchor nucleoporins at the nuclear envelope, have not been found to localize at the cilium. Here we use the directed yeast two-hybrid assay to identify direct interactions between nucleoporins and nephronophthisis proteins (NPHPs) which localize to the cilium base and contribute to cilium assembly and identity. We validate NPHP-nucleoporin interactions in mammalian cells using the knocksideways assay and demonstrate that the interactions occur at the base of the primary cilium using bimolecular fluorescence complementation. We propose that NPHP proteins anchor nucleoporins at the base of primary cilia to regulate protein entry into the organelle.
