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

Circular actin waves that propagate on the substrate-attached membrane of Dictyostelium cells separate two distinct membrane domains from each other: an inner territory rich in phosphatidyl-(3,4,5) trisphosphate (PIP3) and an external area decorated with the PIP3-degrading 3-phosphatase PTEN. During wave propagation, the inner territory increases at the expense of the external area. Beyond a size limit, the inner territory becomes unstable, breaking into an inner and an external domain. The sharp boundary between these domains is demarcated by the insertion of an actin wave. During the conversion of inner territory to external area, the state of the membrane fluctuates, as visualized by dynamic landscapes of formin B binding. Here we analyze the formin B fluctuations in relation to three markers of the membrane state: activated Ras, PIP3, and PTEN.
