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

Chromogranin B (CgB, secretogranin I) is a widespread constituent of neuroendocrine secretory granules whose function is unknown. To determine whether CgB affects the sorting of peptide hormone and neuropeptide precursors to secretory granules, we overexpressed CgB in AtT-20 cells, which exhibit an only moderate capacity to sort proopiomelanocortin and proteolytic fragments derived therefrom. In mock-transfected AtT-20 cells, a substantial proportion of newly synthesized proopiomelanocortin and its two primary proteolytic products generated in the trans-Golgi network, the N-terminal 23-kDa fragment containing adrenocorticotropin and the C-terminal beta-lipotropin fragment, was secreted via the constitutive pathway. Two- to three-fold overexpression of CgB markedly reduced the constitutive secretion of the 23-kDa fragment, but not beta-lipotropin and tripled the amount of adrenocorticotropin generated and stored in secretory granules. Our results indicate the existence of neuroendocrine-specific helper proteins which promote the sorting from the trans-Golgi network to secretory granules of certain processing intermediates derived from peptide hormone and neuropeptide precursors and demonstrate that CgB functions as such.
