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

Neutrophils are highly motile leukocytes that migrate inside tissues to destroy invading pathogens. Ca2+ signals coordinate leukocytes migration, but whether Ca2+ fluxes mediated by Stim proteins at ER-PM contact sites regulate neutrophil actin-based motility is unclear. Here, we show that myeloid-specific Stim1/2 ablation decreases basal cytosolic Ca2+ levels and prevents adhesion-induced Ca2+ elevations in mouse neutrophils, reducing actin fiber formation and impairing spreading. Unexpectedly, more ER-PM contact sites were detected on the actin-poor adhesive membranes of Stim1/2-deficient neutrophils, which had reduced inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) immunoreactivity on confocal and immunogold micrographs despite preserved IP3R levels on western blots. Remarkably, Stim1/2-deficient neutrophils regained signaling and spreading competence in Ca2+-rich solutions and were recruited more effectively in mouse inflamed cremaster muscles in vivo. Our findings indicate that Stim1/2 preserve IP3R functionality in neutrophils, generating adhesion-dependent Ca2+ signals that control actin dynamics during neutrophil spreading. Stim proteins thus maintain IP3R signaling competence at adhesive membranes, enabling Ca2+-dependent actin remodeling during spreading in mouse neutrophils.
