Preliminary research on myosin light chain kinase in rabbit liver.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
aimTo study preliminarily the properties of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) in rabbit liver.
methodsThe expression of MLCK was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR); the MLCK was obtained from rabbit liver, and its activity was analyzed by gamma-(32)P incorporation technique to detect the phosphorylation of myosin light chain.
resultsMLCK was expressed in rabbit liver, and the activity of the enzyme was similar to rabbit smooth muscle MLCK, and calmodulin-dependent. When the concentration was 0.65 mg x L(-1), the activity was at the highest level.
conclusionMLCK expressed in rabbit liver may catalyze the phosphorylation of myosin light chain, which may play important roles in the regulation of hepatic cell functions.
