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

Although the properties of the actin cytoskeleton in the cytoplasm are well characterized, the regulation and function of nuclear actin filaments are only recently emerging. We previously demonstrated serum-induced, transient assembly of filamentous actin within somatic cell nuclei. However, the extracellular cues, cell surface receptors as well as underlying signaling mechanisms have been unclear. Here we demonstrate that physiological ligands for G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) promote nuclear F-actin assembly via heterotrimeric Gα
