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 cell-free activation of human neutrophil NADPH oxidase (O(2)(-)-generating enzyme) is enhanced by actin [Morimatsu, Kawagoshi, Yoshida and Tamura (1997) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 230, 206--210]. In an attempt to elucidate the mechanism, we examined the effect of actin-depolymerizing agents on the duration of NADPH oxidase in a cell-free system. The addition of DNase I, an F-actin-depolymerizing protein, caused an accelerated deactivation of the oxidase. The deactivation was also facilitated by latrunculin A, a sponge toxin that depolymerizes F-actin. Exogenously added actin prevented the deactivation by DNase I or latrunculin A, whereas EDTA accelerated a dilution-induced deactivation of the oxidase and Mg(2+) ions retarded it. The stability in dilution was found to correlate well with free Mg(2+) concentration. Estimation of F-actin in the system showed that F-actin increased during the oxidase activation and that DNase I or EDTA decreased F-actin content in parallel with the activity. Treatment of the cell-free mixture with a chemical cross-linker prevented the deactivation and F-actin decrease by EDTA. Taken together, these results suggest that actin filaments which grow during the activation of NADPH oxidase prolong the lifetime of the oxidase.
