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

Microsomes prepared from equine submandibular glands and incubated with tritium-labelled AcCoA incorporated acid-insoluble radioactivity in a manner dependent on time, protein, membrane integrity and AcCoA concentration, with incorporation being optimal at 37 degrees C and pH 6.6. Under the experimental conditions used a K(M) of 32.1 microM for AcCoA and a V(max) of 1.2 pmol/mg protein x min was obtained. The incorporation of acid-insoluble radioactivity was also inhibited by CoA in a competitive manner (K(i)=240 microM), as well as by para-chloromercuribenzoate, 3'-dephospho-CoA, 5'-IDP, 5'-ADP, beta-NAD and 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate. We demonstrate here that this incorporation of radioactivity into endogenous sialic acid is due to the action of an AcCoA:sialate-4-O-acetyltransferase [EC 2.3.1.44]. Radio thin-layer chromatography analyses of propionic acid-released sialic acids showed that the incorporation of radioactivity correlated with the formation of a radiolabelled species that co-migrated with authentic Neu4,5Ac2. Saponification experiments using NaOH, mouse hepatitis virus strain S and Influenza C/JJ/50 virus also showed that the transfer of [3H]acetyl groups from [3H]AcCoA to endogenous sialic acid acceptors was occurring exclusively at carbon 4 of the pyranose ring.
