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.
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
Late endosomal secretion is an unconventional secretion mechanism that depends on the SNARE protein VAMP7. We previously showed that VAMP7 mediates the secretion of the ER protein Reticulon3. However, the functional relevance and molecular mechanism of this secretory pathway remain unclear. Here, we show that VAMP7 knockout cells exhibit impaired secretion of ER- and mitochondrial-derived proteins and signs of ER and mitochondrial stress. In addition, pharmacological induction of organellar stress enhances the VAMP7-dependent secretion. We assess the pathophysiological significance of this mechanism using a preclinical glioblastoma model. VAMP7 knockout glioblastoma cells implanted in male rat brain develop into more necrotic tumors with reduced macrophage infiltration compared to controls, suggesting that VAMP7-dependent late endosomal secretion contributes to the tumor microenvironment and affects macrophage infiltration. Together, our results support a model in which late endosomal secretion functions as an organelle quality-control and stress-communication mechanism, with particular relevance to cancer.
