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

It was previously shown that the presence of estrogen enhances survival of Candida albicans under heat and oxidative stresses. A 92-kDa protein is inducible by heat shock and estrogen in C. albicans. Previous studies have described this protein as hsp90 because of its molecular size and heat inducibility as seen on electrophoretic gels and Western blots. In this study, ion exchange, hydroxyapatite and size exclusion chromatography were used to isolate a 92-kDa-protein band. The N-terminal sequence of isolated protein blotted onto a PVDF membrane was determined to be V-Q-S-?-V-L-G-F-P-R. This sequence is homologous to the N-terminal sequence of the MET6 gene product, cobalamin-independent methionine synthase, from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The results of this study suggest that a cobalamin-independent methionine synthase homolog is inducible by heat and estrogen in C. albicans. This study also suggests that Candida hsp90 is more likely to exist as an 82-kDa protein as predicted by a previously described cDNA and not as a 92-kDa protein as reported in the literature.
