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

Tubulin C-terminal tails undergo diverse post-translational modifications that regulate microtubule interactions with motors and severing enzymes. TTLL11, a member of the tubulin tyrosine ligase-like (TTLL) family, uniquely catalyzes glutamate addition to the terminal α-carboxyl group of both α- and β-primary tubulin tails. This linear C-terminal glutamylation enables the rescue of truncated tubulin variants and may support re-entry into the modification cycle. TTLL11 substrate specificity is determined by terminal residue identity rather than tubulin isotype. These findings expand the tubulin code and raise new questions about how linear and branched glutamylation are differentially recognized by microtubule-associated proteins.
