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

Actomyosin contractility represents an ancient feature of eukaryotic cells participating in many developmental and homeostasis events, including tissue morphogenesis, muscle contraction and cell migration, with dysregulation implicated in various pathological conditions, such as cancer. At the molecular level, actomyosin comprises actin bundles and myosin motor proteins that are sensitive to posttranslational modifications like phosphorylation. While the molecular components of actomyosin are well understood, the coordination of contractility by extracellular and intracellular signals, particularly from cellular signalling pathways, remains incompletely elucidated. This study focuses on WNT/planar cell polarity (PCP) signalling, previously associated with actomyosin contractility during vertebrate neurulation. Our investigation reveals that the main cytoplasmic PCP proteins, Prickle and Dishevelled, interact with key actomyosin components such as myosin light chain 9 (MLC9), leading to its phosphorylation and localized activation. Using proteomics and microscopy approaches, we demonstrate that both PCP proteins actively control actomyosin contractility through Rap1 small GTPases in relevant
