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 Golgi complex serves as a major noncentrosomal microtubule-organizing center in animal cells, with Golgi-derived microtubules playing a crucial role in Golgi assembly, structural organization, cell migration, and various Golgi-related cellular functions. In this study, we identify GAS2L1 as a key regulator of Golgi-based microtubule growth and Golgi reassembly. Loss of GAS2L1 leads to significant defects in Golgi morphology and impairs nocodazole washout-induced Golgi reassembly. Notably, microtubule regrowth from the Golgi after nocodazole treatment is markedly inhibited in GAS2L1-knockout cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that GAS2L1 interacts with CLASP1/2, known regulators of Golgi-derived microtubules, suggesting that GAS2L1 functions in concert with CLASP1/2 to regulate Golgi-associated microtubule dynamics. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms governing Golgi-derived microtubules, expanding our understanding beyond the established roles of CLASP1/2.
