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

We investigated the role of the redox state of the photosynthetic and respiratory electron transport chains on the regulation of psbA expression in Synechocystis PCC 6803. Different means to modify the redox state of the electron carriers were used: (a) dark to oxidize the whole electron transport chain; (b) a shift from dark to light to induce its reduction; (c) the chemical interruption of the electron flow at different points to change the redox state of specific electron carriers; and (d) the presence of glucose to maintain a high reducing power in darkness. We show that changes in the redox state of the intersystem electron transport chain induce modifications of psbA transcript production and psbA mRNA stability. Reduction of the intersystem electron carriers activates psbA transcription and destabilizes the mRNA, while their oxidation induces a decrease in transcription and a stabilization of the transcript. Furthermore, our data suggest that the redox state of one of the electron carriers between the plastoquinone pool and photosystem I influences not only the expression of the psbA gene, but also that of other two photosynthetic genes, psaE and cpcBA. As a working hypothesis, we propose that the occupancy of the Q(0) site in the cytochrome b(6)/f complex may be involved in this regulation.
