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

Role of protein kinase C (PKC) isotypes in the regulation of neutrophil function are not clearly known. In the present study we purified the beta-PKC and zeta-PKC isotypes from human neutrophil. Both the isotypes are immunoreactive only to their respective antibodies. Zeta-PKC was further confirmed by RT-PCR using specific primer. Co-factor requirements for both the kinases were found to be different when DG and ceramide were used as second messenger. Selective substrate specificities were determined for both beta and zeta-PKC using isotype specific pseudosubstrates viz., [Ser25]PKC[19-31] and [Ser119]PKC[113-130] respectively. Endogenous protein phosphorylation by purified beta-PKC and zeta-PKC showed their functional differences in neutrophil. Beta-PKC phosphorylated 13, 15, 19, 33, 36, 47, 80 and 92 kDa proteins and zeta-PKC phosphorylated 19, 22, 42, 47, 75 and 87 kDa proteins, only exception was the phosphorylation of 47 kDa protein which had been phosphorylated by both the kinases. Differences in phosphorylation between beta-PKC and zeta-PKC clearly indicate the selective role for these PKC isotypes in the activation sequences of neutrophil.
