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

Phosducin (Pd), a small protein found abundantly in photoreceptors, is widely assumed to regulate light sensitivity in the rod outer segment through interaction with the heterotrimeric G protein transducin. But, based on histochemistry and Western blot analysis, Pd is found almost entirely in the inner segment in both light and dark, most abundantly near the rod synapse. We report a second small protein, 14-3-3, in the rod with a similar distribution. By immunoprecipitation, phospho-Pd is found to interact with 14-3-3 in material from dark-adapted retina, and this interaction is markedly diminished by light, which dephosphorylates Pd. Conversely, unphosphorylated Pd binds to inner segment G protein(s) in the light. From these results and reported functions of 14-3-3, we have constructed a hypothesis for the regulation of light sensitivity at the level of rod synapse. By dissociating the Pd/14-3-3 complex, light enables both proteins to function in this role.
