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 human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) gene products US2 and US11 dislocate major histocompatibility class I heavy chains from the ER and target them for proteasomal degradation in the cytosol. The dislocation reaction is inhibited by agents that affect intracellular redox potential and/or free thiol status, such as diamide and N-ethylmaleimide. Subcellular fractionation experiments indicate that this inhibition occurs at the stage of discharge from the ER into the cytosol. The T cell receptor alpha (TCR alpha) chain is also degraded by a similar set of reactions, yet in a manner independent of virally encoded gene products. Diamide and N-ethylmaleimide likewise inhibit the dislocation of the full-length TCR alpha chain from the ER, as well as a truncated, mutant version of TCR alpha chain that lacks cysteine residues. Cytosolic destruction of glycosylated, ER-resident type I membrane proteins, therefore, requires maintenance of a proper redox potential for the initial step of removal of the substrate from the ER environment.
