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

To identify sporulation-specific proteins that might serve as targets of developmental regulatory factors in Streptomyces, we examined total proteins of Streptomyces griseus by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Among five proteins that were present at high levels during sporulation but absent from vegetative cells, two of the proteins, P3 and P4, were absent from developmental mutants that undergo aberrant morphogenesis. The deduced amino acid sequence of the gene that encodes P3 (EshA) showed extensive similarity to proteins from mycobacteria and a cyanobacterium, Synechococcus, that are abundant during nutritional stress but whose functions are unknown. Uniquely among these proteins, EshA contains a cyclic nucleotide-binding domain, suggesting that the activity of EshA may be modulated by a cyclic nucleotide. The eshA gene was strongly expressed from a single transcription start site only during sporulation, and accumulation of the eshA transcript depended on a developmental gene, bldA. During submerged sporulation, a null mutant strain that produced no EshA could not extend sporogenic hyphae from new branch points but instead accelerated septation and spore maturation at the preexisting vegetative filaments. These results indicated that EshA is required for the growth of sporogenic hyphae and localization of septation and spore maturation but not for spore viability.
