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

Lipid droplets (LDs) are central to cellular energy homeostasis and lipid metabolism. While LD-associated proteins are known to regulate LD dynamics and function, their roles in LD transport and their broader cellular significance remain poorly understood. In this study, we identify lipid droplet-localized spindle apparatus coiled-coil protein 1 (SPDL1-L) as a key regulator of intracellular LD transport. SPDL1-L localizes to LDs through the synergistic action of its hydrophobic region and nearby basic residues. SPDL1-L expression promotes LD clustering at the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) and the formation of donut-shaped (toroidal) nuclei during cell division. SPDL1-L-mediated LD clustering is likely through dynein-mediated minus end transport. LD clustering activity is diminished when the LD targeting or dynein binding function of SPDL1-L is impaired. Together, our findings provide new insights into the mechanisms governing LD dynamics and their impact on cellular organization.
