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

Phosphate homeostasis is essential for fundamental cellular processes, including energy metabolism, signal transduction, and nucleic acid synthesis. Although XPR1 family proteins are conserved phosphate exporters throughout eukaryotes, their structural mechanisms in organisms other than mammals and plants remain largely unexplored. Here, we presented high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of Schizosaccharomyces pombe Xpr1 (SpXpr1) in both the apo and inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP6)-bound states. While SpXpr1 shares conserved phosphate coordination sites with its human and plant orthologs, SpXpr1 employs a unique dual gating mechanism: (1) an intracellular gate formed by the N-loop of the SPX domain, stabilized by a preceding N-helix and an extended TM10 helix and (2) an extracellular ECL
