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

UNC13 family (also known as Munc13) proteins are evolutionarily conserved proteins involved in the rapid and regulated secretion of vesicles, including synaptic vesicles and cytotoxic granules. Fast and regulated secretion at the neuronal and immunological synapses requires multiple steps, from the biogenesis of vesicles to membrane fusion, and a complex array of proteins for each step. Defects at these steps can lead to various genetic disorders. Recent studies have shown multiple roles of UNC13D in the secretion of cytotoxic granules by immune cells. Here, the molecular structure and detailed roles of UNC13D in the biogenesis, tethering, and priming of cytotoxic vesicles and in endoplasmic reticulum are summarized. Moreover, its association with immune diseases, including familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 3, macrophage activation syndrome, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome, is reviewed. Finally, the therapeutic application of CRISPR/Cas9-based gene therapy for genetic diseases is introduced.
