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

Sodium-proton exchangers (NHEs) are found in all cells to regulate intracellular pH, sodium levels and cell volume. In humans, there are nine different NHE transporters (SLC9A1-9), which vary in tissue distribution, kinetics and regulation. NHE6 localizes to endosomal membranes and mutations in the protein are known to cause the X-linked neurological disorder Christianson syndrome. Despite its importance, the structural basis of NHE6 function and regulation is unclear. Here we report four cryo-electron microscopy structures of rat NHE6 between 2.2 and 3.3 Å resolution, revealing its homodimeric structure, ion binding and remodelling by lipids. We characterize a lipid-binding site between the protomers that accommodates the endosomal-specific phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) lipid. Using solid-supported membrane (SSM)-based electrophysiology we demonstrate that NHE6 transports both Na
