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

Keratins are one of the most abundant proteins in epithelial cells. They form a cytoskeletal filament network whose structural organization seriously conditions its function. Dynamic keratin particles and aggregates are often observed at the periphery of mutant keratinocytes related to the hereditary skin disorder epidermolysis bullosa simplex, which is due to mutations in keratins 5 and 14. To account for their emergence in mutant cells, we extended an existing mathematical model of keratin turnover in wild-type cells and developed a novel 2D phase-field model to predict the keratin distribution inside the cell. This model includes the turnover between soluble, particulate and filamentous keratin forms. We assumed that the mutation causes a slowdown in the assembly of an intermediate keratin phase into filaments, and demonstrated that this change is enough to account for the loss of keratin filaments in the cell's interior and the emergence of keratin particles at its periphery. The developed mathematical model is also particularly tailored to model the spatial distribution of keratins as the cell changes its shape.
