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

Transparency represents the functional phenotype of eye lens. A number of defined steps including quiescence, proliferation, migration and cell differentiation culminates in cell elongation and organelle degradation, allowing the light to reach the retina. HOPS (Hepatocyte Odd Protein Shuttling)/TMUB1 (Trans Membrane Ubiquitin-like containing protein 1) is a nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling protein, highly expressed both in vivo and in vitro proliferating systems, bearing a ubiquitin-like domain. The present study shows HOPS expression during the phases of lens cell proliferation and fiber differentiation, and its localisation in lens compartments. In lens, HOPS localises mainly in the nucleus of central epithelial cells. During mitosis, HOPS/TMUB1 shuttles to the cytoplasm and returns to the nucleus at the end of mitosis. The differentiating cells share distinct HOPS/TMUB1 localisation in transitional zone depending on the differentiation phases. HOPS/TMUB1 is observed in lens cortex and nucleus. Here, it is attached to fibers, having a structural function with crystallin proteins, probably acting in the ubiquitin-proteasome system.
