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

Motile cilia and flagella require ATP for their formation and function. Although glycolytic enzymes are components of flagellar proteomes, how they translocate to flagella is unknown. Here we show that the expression pattern of the functionally nonannotated gene 4833427G06Rik (C11orf88), which is found only in vertebrates and is designated here as Hoatzin (Hoatz), suggests a functional association of its product with motile cilia and flagella. Hoatz knockout (KO) mice developed hydrocephalus and male infertility in an autosomal recessive manner, and the ependymal cilia frequently showed disorganized axonemes, reducing motility associated with collapsed spermatid flagella during cytodifferentiation. HOATZ was associated with certain proteins, including the flagellar glycolytic enzyme ENO4. In the testes of the Hoatz KO mice, the immature form of ENO4 accumulated in abnormal cytoplasmic puncta of developing spermatids. These data indicate that HOATZ is required for motile ciliogenesis and flagellar genesis in vertebrates by mediating the maturation of ENO4.
