Endocytosis restricts dendrite branching via removing ectopically localized branching ligands.
Article in Nature communications, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Neurons often grow highly branched and cell-type specific dendrite morphologies to receive and integrate information, which is the basis of precise neural circuit formation. Previous studies have identified numerous mechanisms that promote dendrite branching. In contrast, it is much less understood how this process is negatively regulated. Here we show that EAT-17/EVI5 acts together with the dynein adaptor protein BICD-1 and the motor protein dynein in C. elegans epidermal cells to restrict branching of PVD sensory dendrites. Loss-of-function mutants of these genes cause both ectopic branching and accumulation of the dendrite branching ligand SAX-7/L1CAM on epidermal plasma membranes. Mutants of genes regulating endo-lysosomal trafficking, including rab-5/RAB5 and dyn-1/DNM1, show similar defects. Biochemical characterization, genetic analysis, and imaging results support that EAT-17 and BICD-1 directly interact with each other and function in the endocytic degradation pathway to remove ectopically localized dendrite branching ligands to restrict abnormal branching.
