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

Cell-free in vitro assays offer several advantages for elucidating molecular mechanisms underlying various biological processes. Here, we describe a simple and quantitative in vitro assay using isolated yeast microsomes to measure homotypic ER membrane fusion. In this assay, membrane fusion between ER microsomes is monitored by reconstitution of luciferase activity from split luciferase fragments. Our findings reveal that homotypic ER membrane fusion requires not only Sey1p, the yeast atlstin, but also ER-resident SNAREs, such as Sec22p and Sec20p, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
