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

Nucleocytoplasmic transport deficits are suggested to play a role in neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Given the importance and complexity of this process, understanding when these aberrations occur and which pathways are involved is of great importance. Here, we make use of CRISPR-Cas9 technology to design cell lines stably expressing fluorophore proteins shuttling between the nucleus and cytoplasm by karyopherins of choice. To validate this protocol, we measured an ALS-associated nucleocytoplasmic transport pathway in the presence of the disease-associated peptide poly-PR. This technique allows measuring a particular active nucleocytoplasmic transport pathway in intact cells in a neurodegenerative disease-associated context. Moreover, these experiments can be performed without the need for expensive equipment and have the potential to be upscaled for high-throughput screening purposes.
