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

Activation of cell surface receptor integrin has been extensively studied as the first key step to trigger cell adhesion, but the subsequent events, widely regarded as integrin "outside-in" signaling to form supramolecular complexes (focal adhesions [FAs]) to promote dynamic cell adhesion, remain poorly elucidated. Integrin activator kindlin-2 was recently found to associate with paxillin in nascent FAs, implicating an early yet undefined integrin outside-in signaling event. Here we show structurally that kindlin-2 recognizes paxillin via a distinct interface involving the ubiquitin-like kindlin-2 F0 domain and the paxillin LIM4 domain. The interface is adjacent to the membrane binding site of kindlin-2 F0, suggesting a mechanism for kindlin-2 to recruit paxillin to the membrane-proximal site where FA assembly is initiated. Disruption of the interface impaired the localization of paxillin, causing strong defects in FA assembly and cell migration. These data unveil a structural basis of the kindlin-2/paxillin interaction in controlling dynamic cell adhesion.
