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

Capping protein (CP) regulates actin-based motility by blocking monomer exchange at the filament barbed end. Several proteins, including CARMIL, bind CP and allosterically weaken its affinity for the barbed end. CARMIL comprises pleckstrin homology (PH), leucine-rich repeat (LRR), helical dimerization (HD), CP-binding region (CBR), and proline-rich (PR) domains, but their roles in CP regulation remain unclear. We show that CARMIL1 is partially autoinhibited, with CBR (CARMIL1
