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

Primary cilia are sensory organelles that regulate various signaling pathways. When microtubules are compared to a highway, motor proteins carry and transport cargo proteins, which are tuned by post-translational modifications, such as acetylation. However, the role of acetylation in primary cilia regulation remains unclear. In this study, histone K (lysine) acetyltransferase 2 B (Kat2b) was identified as a novel regulator of primary cilia. Kat2b, which mainly regulates transcription as a p300/CBP associated factor, is localized to the cytosol, centrosome, and cilium basal body. In addition, basal Kat2b expression gradually increased during ciliogenesis. Kat2b regulates the rate of cilia assembly, particularly in the early stages, and loss of Kat2b reduces the recruitment of intraflagellar transport (IFT) components to the ciliary axoneme and impairs Hedgehog (Hh) signaling activation. In addition, Kat2b-knockout mice showed mild abnormalities and ciliary IFT defects in the kidneys. These results establish a link between acetylation regulated by Kat2b and its relevance to ciliary assembly and function.
