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

Measurement of intrinsic as well as GTPase-activating Protein (GAP) catalyzed GTP hydrolysis is central to understanding the molecular mechanism and function of GTPases in diverse cellular processes. For the Rab GTPase family, which comprises at least 60 distinct proteins in humans, putative GAPs have been identified from both eukaryotic organisms and pathogenic bacteria. A major obstacle has involved identification of target substrates and determination of the specificity for the Rab family. Here, we describe a sensitive, high-throughput method to quantitatively profile GAP activity for Rab GTPases in microplate format based on detection of inorganic phosphate released after GTP hydrolysis. The method takes advantage of a well-characterized fluorescent phosphate sensor, requires relatively low protein concentrations, and can, in principle, be applied to any GAP-GTPase system.
