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

Polyamines are present in all living cells and are implicated in various crucial cellular processes such as proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy. In contrast, excess amounts of polyamines can be toxic to cells. ATP13A2 was recently identified as a mammalian polyamine transporter in neuronal cells. In this study, we attempted to characterize the function of ATP13A2 in cultured human lung epithelial cells. The data demonstrated that ATP13A2 is endogenously expressed in mouse lungs, and in cultured lung epithelial cells, the expression level of ATP13A2 drastically changes over culture time and peaks in the logarithmic phase during the proliferation curve. ATPase activity in ATP13A2-enriched microsomes from lung cells showed polyamine dependence, as previously reported for other cell types and species. Overexpression of ATP13A2 caused a moderate increase in total cellular polyamine content, whereas ATP13A2 knockdown resulted in a decrease in cellular polyamine levels. These findings provide novel information regarding the cellular function of ATP13A2 in lungs and contribute to our understanding of cellular polyamine transport systems.
