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

Two meters of DNA in each of our cells must be protected against many types of damage. Mechanoprotection is increasingly understood to be conferred by the nuclear lamina of intermediate filament proteins, but very different patterns of expression and regulation between different cells and tissues remain a challenge to comprehend and translate into applications. We begin with a tutorial style presentation of "tissue blueprints" of lamin expression including single-cell RNA sequencing in major public datasets. Lamin-A, C profiles appear strikingly similar to those for the mechanosensitive factors Vinculin, Yap1, and Piezo1, whereas datasets for lamin-B1 align with and predict regulation by the cell cycle transcription factor, FOXM1, and further predict poor survival across multiple cancers. Various experiments support the distinction between the lamin types and add mechanistic insight into the mechano-regulation of lamin-A, C by both matrix elasticity and externally imposed tissue strain. Both A- and B-type lamins, nonetheless, protect the nucleus from rupture and damage. Ultimately, for mechanically active tissue constructs and organoids as well as cell therapies, lamin levels require particular attention as they help minimize nuclear damage and defects in a cell cycle.
