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

Arfs are small Ras-superfamily proteins important for regulating membrane trafficking including the recruitment of vesicular coats as well as a diverse range of other functions. There are five Arfs in humans: two Class I Arfs (Arf1 and Arf3), two Class II Arfs (Arf4 and Arf5) and one Class III Arf (Arf6), with Class I and Class II Arfs present on the Golgi apparatus among other locations. These Golgi Arfs (Arf1, Arf3, Arf4 and Arf5) are highly similar in sequence, and knockout studies have established a complex pattern of redundancy, with Arf4 alone able to support cell survival in tissue culture. Moreover, adding to the complexity, functions of Arfs on distinct membranes can involve non-overlapping sets of effectors (e.g., COPI on
