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

One form of carbonic anhydrase (CA) has been observed in maize (Zea mays) thylakoids and photosystem II (PSII)-enriched membranes. Here, we show that an antibody produced against a thylakoid lumen-targeted CA found in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii reacts with a single 33-kD polypeptide in maize thylakoids. With immunoblot analysis, we found that this single polypeptide could be identified only in mesophyll thylakoids and derived PSII membranes, but not in bundle sheath thylakoids. Likewise, a CA activity assay confirmed a large amount of activity in mesophyll, but not in bundle sheath membranes. Immunoblot analysis and CA activity assay showed that the maximum CA can be obtained in the supernatant of the PSII-enriched membranes washed with 1 M CaCl(2), the same procedure used to remove all extrinsic lumenal proteins from PSII. Because this CA reacts with an antibody to lumen-directed CA in C. reinhardtii, and because it can be removed with 1 M CaCl(2) wash, we refer to it tentatively as extrinsic CA. This is to distinguish it from another form of CA activity tightly bound to PSII membranes that remains after CaCl(2) wash, which has been described previously. The function of extrinsic CA is not clear. It is unlikely to have the same function as the cytoplasmic CA, which has been proposed to increase the HCO(-)(3) concentration for phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and the C(4) pathway. We suggest that because the extrinsic CA is associated only with thylakoids doing linear electron flow, it could function to produce the CO(2) or HCO(-)(3) needed for PSII activity.
