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

Cilia and flagella are microtubule-based cellular projections with important sensory and motility functions. Their absence or malfunction is associated with a growing number of human diseases collectively referred to as ciliopathies. However, the fundamental mechanisms underpinning cilia biogenesis and functions remain only partly understood. Here, we show that depleting LUZP1 or its interacting protein, EPLIN, increases the levels of MyosinVa at the centrosome and primary cilia formation. We further show that LUZP1 localizes to both actin filaments and the centrosome/basal body. Like EPLIN, LUZP1 is an actin-stabilizing protein that regulates actin dynamics, at least in part, by mobilizing ARP2 to the centrosomes. Both LUZP1 and EPLIN interact with known ciliogenesis and cilia-length regulators and as such represent novel players in actin-dependent centrosome to basal body conversion. Ciliogenesis deregulation caused by LUZP1 or EPLIN loss may thus contribute to the pathology of their associated disease states.
