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

Two lysosomal proenzymes, procathepsins L and D, bind to mouse fibroblast microsomal membranes at acidic pH. This membrane association is independent of the mannose-6-phosphate receptors and requires the presence of the N-terminal propeptides of the enzymes. We have identified the protein that specifically binds procathepsin L at pH 5. A 43-kDa membrane protein coimmunoprecipitated with procathepsin L at pH 5 but not at pH 7 when cells were denatured with detergents. Similarly, a 43-kDa integral membrane protein bound procathepsin L in three kinds of ligand blots at pH 5 but not at pH 7. A synthetic peptide containing the 24 N-terminal residues of mouse procathepsin L blocked the binding of procathepsin L to this integral membrane protein on ligand blots. These results indicate that the 43-kDa integral membrane protein is a lysosomal proenzyme receptor that specifically binds the procathepsin L activation peptide at acidic pH.
