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

Tectonin Beta-Propeller Repeat containing 1 (TECPR1) is an essential regulator of a noncanonical autophagy pathway known as Sphingomyelin TECPR1 induced LC3 lipidation (STIL). TECPR1 forms an E3-like ligase complex and recognizes exposed sphingomyelin on damaged membranes. TECPR1 contains five folded domains however the structural basis for TECPR1 function has remained unresolved. Here, we report the first structure of full length TECPR1 resolved using cryo electron microscopy. TECPR1 forms an elongated hook shaped architecture that positions Dysferlin domains in a cis arrangement. Our structure uncovers an uncharacterized intramolecular interface between tectonin repeat 1 and PH domains. This interaction forms a stabilizing bridge that contributes to the orientation of the DysF domains. Molecular dynamics simulations further demonstrate that TECPR1 maintains the overall structural arrangement during membrane association. Our data provide a structural framework for how TECPR1 domain arrangement corresponds with membrane binding.
