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.
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 accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) activates the unfolded protein response (UPR) to maintain the homeostasis of the ER. The UPR consists of the IRE1, PERK and ATF6 pathways in vertebrates. Knockout of the IRE1 and PERK pathways causes defects in liver and pancreatic β cells, respectively, in mice, whereas knockout of the ATF6 pathway causes very early embryonic lethality in mice and medaka fish, a vertebrate model organism. We previously showed that ATF6 knockout in medaka causes a defect in the development of the notochord-the notochord becomes shorter-but that transient overexpression of the ER chaperone BiP via microinjection of BiP mRNA into one-cell stage embryos of these ATF6 knockout rescues this defect. Here, we microinjected mRNA encoding various ER chaperones and found that GRP94, calreticulin and calnexin also partially rescued this defect. Thus, BiP/GRP94 and calreticulin/calnexin greatly contribute to the development of the notochord by controlling the quality of collagens and N-glycosylated proteins (such as laminin and fibrillin), respectively, which have been confirmed necessary for the formation of the notochord in zebrafish.Key words: endoplasmic reticulum, protein folding, molecular chaperone, collagen, glycoprotein.
