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

Regulated proteolysis in eukaryotes relies on the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which is critical to myriad cellular functions, including protein quality control, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair. Here, we provide evidence that proteasome activity is also essential for maintaining cell identity. This finding was made by evaluating the impact of losing the ubiquitin-binding activity of proteasome substrate receptor hRpn10/PSMD4. The most dysregulated proteins in cells that express hRpn10 truncated before its ubiquitin interaction motifs (hRpn10
