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

Experiments on the integration of blue and orange stimuli in Halobacterium salinarum were performed by using different combinations of blue and orange steps. The results show that the prevalence of the blue stimulus over the orange one depends on both the blue and the orange light intensities. A quantitative analysis of the current hypotheses on the phototransduction of orange and UV-blue light stimuli is presented, showing that the balancing between the two antagonistic stimuli should depend only on the intensity of the blue stimulus and not on that of the orange one, provided that the combination of the two stimuli occurs linearly at the photoreceptor stage. We conclude that blue and orange stimuli elicit distinct intracellular signals whose integration occurs downstream of the photoreceptor.
