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

Wingless (Wg)/Wnt signaling plays a critical role in both development and adult tissue homeostasis. In the Drosophila larval wing disc epithelium, the orderly delivery of Wg/Wnt to the apical and basal cell surfaces is essential for wing development. Here, we identified Ehbp1 as the switch that dictates the direction of Wg/Wnt polarized intracellular transport: the Adaptor Protein complex 1 (AP-1) delivers Wg/Wnt to the basolateral cell surface, and its sequestration by Ehbp1 redirects Wg/Wnt for apical delivery. Genetic analyses showed that Ehbp1 specifically regulates the polarized distribution of Wg/Wnt, a process that depends on the dedicated Wg/Wnt cargo receptor Wntless. Mechanistically, Ehbp1 competes with Wntless for AP-1 binding, thereby preventing the unregulated basolateral Wg/Wnt transport. Reducing Ehbp1 expression, or removing the coiled-coil motifs within its bMERB domain, leads to basolateral Wg/Wnt accumulation. Importantly, the regulation of polarized Wnt delivery by EHBP1 is conserved in vertebrates. The generality of this switch mechanism for regulating intracellular transport remains to be determined in future studies.
