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

The topology of signal transduction is particularly important for neurons. Neurotrophic factors such as nerve growth factor (NGF) interact with receptors at distal axons and a signal is transduced by retrograde transport to the cell body to ensure survival of the neuron. We have discovered an organelle that may account for the retrograde transport of the neurotrophin signal. This organelle is derived from endocytosis of the receptor tyrosine kinase for NGF, TrkA. In vitro reactions containing semi-intact PC12 cells and ATP were used to enhance recovery of a novel organelle: small vesicles containing internalized NGF bound to activated TrkA. These vesicles were distinct from clathrin coated vesicles, uncoated primary endocytic vesicles, and synaptic vesicles, and resembled transport vesicles in their sedimentation velocity. They contained 10% of the total bound NGF and almost one-third of the total tyrosine phosphorylated TrkA. These small vesicles are compelling candidates for the organelles through which the neurotrophin signal is conveyed down the axon.
