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 nexin-dynein regulatory complex (N-DRC) is an essential axonemal structure for ciliary and flagellar motility. Coiled-coil domain containing 153 (CCDC153) has recently been identified as a new N-DRC component in Tetrahymena thermophila. However, the physiological function of its mammalian homolog remains unknown. Here, we generated a Ccdc153 knockout mouse model and explored its functional association with motile cilia. We found that CCDC153 was highly expressed in the motile cilia-abundant tissues and localized to the axonemal lumen in motile cilia. However, Ccdc153 knockout mice were viable and exhibited normal brain ventricles and fertility. Overall, our results suggest that CCDC153 is dispensable for ciliary motility in brain ventricles and sperm movement, indicating that CCDC153 is not a potential causative gene in human ciliopathies.
