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 unfolded protein response (UPR) triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress can be both pro-survival or pro-apoptotic, depending on the duration and intensity of the stress. ER stress under (patho)physiological conditions can last for long time, yet the dynamic regulation of the UPR under prolong ER stress is largely unknown. Here, we characterized the UPR dynamics during pharmacologically induced long-term ER stress and revealed an "up-down-up" fluctuation pattern of the IRE1α signal in various types of cells. A fluctuation of the calreticulin-IRE1α interaction intensity orchestrates dynamic regulation of IRE1α activity, which negatively correlates with the intensity of the interaction between IRE1α and BIP, a known suppressor of IRE1α. The calreticulin-IRE1α interaction is negatively affected by Ca
