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

Filamin C (FLNC), a large dimeric actin-binding protein in muscle cells, plays a critical role in transmitting force in the cytoskeleton and that between membrane receptors and the cytoskeleton. It performs crucial mechanosensing and downstream mechanotransduction functions via force-dependent interactions with signaling proteins. Mutations in FLNC have been linked to muscle and heart diseases. The mechanical responses of the force-bearing elements in FLNC have not been determined. This study investigated the mechanical responses of FLNC domains and their dimerization interface using magnetic tweezers. Results showed high stability of the N-terminal domains in the rod-1 segment but significant changes in the rod-2 domains in response to forces of a few piconewtons (pN). The dimerization interface, formed by the R24 domain, has a lifetime of seconds to tens of seconds at pN forces, and it dissociates within 1 s at forces greater than 14 pN. The findings suggest the FLNC dimerization interface provides sufficient mechanical stability that enables force-dependent structural changes in rod-2 domains for signaling protein binding and maintains structural integrity of the rod-1 domains.
