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

Post-translational acylation of lysine side chains is a common mechanism of protein regulation. Modification by long-chain fatty acyl groups is an understudied form of lysine acylation that has gained increasing attention recently due to the characterization of enzymes that catalyze the addition and removal this modification. In this review we summarize what has been learned about lysine fatty acylation in the approximately 30 years since its initial discovery. We report on what is known about the enzymes that regulate lysine fatty acylation and their physiological functions, including tumorigenesis and bacterial pathogenesis. We also cover the effect of lysine fatty acylation on reported substrates. Generally, lysine fatty acylation increases the affinity of proteins for specific cellular membranes, but the physiological outcome depends greatly on the molecular context. Finally, we will go over the experimental tools that have been used to study lysine fatty acylation. While much has been learned about lysine fatty acylation since its initial discovery, the full scope of its biological function has yet to be realized.
