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

IQ motif containing GTPase activating protein 1 (IQGAP1) is a protein scaffold that integrates signals regulating various cellular functions. Recently, utilizing proteomics as a discovery tool and co-immunoprecipitation as a validation method, we reported IQGAP1 as a potential ligand for CD11c, an adhesion molecule that was highly expressed in the intracellular components of neutrophils and regulated the maturation, survival, and function of neutrophils. To date, the role of IQGAP1 in inflammation and immune response is largely unknown. In this study, we reported the direct binding of CD11c with IQGAP1 through various methods. In addition, we investigated the role of IQGAP1 in neutrophil functions by using IQGAP1 knockout (KO) mice. We discovered that IQGAP1 deficiency led to impaired bone marrow neutrophil maturation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, phagocytosis, and neutrophil extracellular traps formation. Thus, for the first time, we reported the essential role of IQGAP1 in neutrophil development.
