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

Nucleoporins (nups) in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) form a selective barrier that suppresses the diffusion of most macromolecules while enabling rapid transport of nuclear transport receptor (NTR)-bound cargos. Recent studies have shown that the NPC may dilate and constrict, but how altering the NPC diameter affects its selective barrier properties remains unclear. Here, we build DNA nanopores with programmable diameters and nup arrangements to model the constricted and dilated NPCs. We find that Nup62 proteins form a dynamic cross-channel barrier impermeable to hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsids when grafted inside 60-nm-wide nanopores but not in 79-nm pores, where Nup62 cluster locally. Furthermore, importin-β1 substantially changes the dynamics of Nup62 assemblies and facilitates the passage of HBV capsids through the 60-nm NPC mimics containing Nup62 and Nup153. Our study shows that transport channel width is critical to the permeability of nup barriers and underscores NTRs' role in dynamically remodeling nup assemblies and mediating the nuclear entry of viruses.
