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

Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a critical quality control mechanism responsible for eliminating misfolded or unassembled proteins. It maintains endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis, ensures a proper folding environment and regulates substrate protein levels. Following its discovery in the late 1980s and early 1990s, research on ERAD in mammals-particularly that mediated by the conserved protein complex comprising suppressor/enhancer of Lin-12-like protein 1-like (SEL1L) and HMG-CoA reductase degradation protein 1 (HRD1)-has advanced substantially over the past decade. SEL1L-HRD1-mediated ERAD is now recognized as a fundamental process in mammals that governs various physiological functions largely in a substrate-specific manner. In humans, mutations in this complex have been causally linked to ERAD-associated neurodevelopmental disorders with onset in infancy (ENDI) and ENDI-agammaglobulinaemia. This Review highlights the SEL1L-HRD1-mediated ERAD pathway, exploring its machinery, molecular mechanism and physiological relevance and potential therapeutic strategies targeting this system.
