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

The Kelch protein superfamily is an evolutionary conserved family containing 63 alternate protein coding members. The superfamily is split into three subfamilies: Kelch like (KLHL), Kelch-repeat and bric-a-bracs (BTB) domain containing (KBTBD) and Kelch domain containing protein (KLHDC). The KLHDC subfamily is one of the smallest within the Kelch superfamily, containing 10 primary members. There is little known about the structures and functions of the subfamily; however, they are thought to be involved in several cellular and molecular processes. Recently, there have been significant structural and biochemical advances for KLHDC2, which has aided our understanding of other KLHDC family members. Furthermore, small molecules directly targeting KLHDC2 have been identified, which act as tools for targeted protein degradation. This review utilises this information, in conjunction with a thorough exploration of the structural aspects and potential biological functions to summarise the relationship between KLHDCs and human disease.
