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

backgroundInhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) proteins are key intrinsic regulators of apoptosis induced by a variety of triggers. We isolated the rat Inhibitor of Apoptosis genes 1, 2 and 3 and characterized their tissue distribution and expression.

resultsRat iap-1 encodes a protein of 67.1 kDa with 73 % and 89.2 % homology to human and mouse iap-1 respectively. Rat iap-2 encodes a protein of 66.7 kDa with 81.6 % and 89.3 % homology to human and mouse iap-2 respectively. Rat iap-3 encodes a protein of 56.1 kDa with 89.5 % and 93.1 % homology to human and mouse iap-3 respectively. We have generated rabbit polyclonal antibodies against all three rat IAP genes. Northern and Western blot analysis detected rat IAP transcripts and proteins in majority of the tissues examined. In addition, a shorter, alternatively spliced transcript corresponding to iap-2 was found in testes.

conclusionsWe have identified three rat homologues of the IAP genes. The elevated expression of rat iap-1 and iap2 in testes suggests that these two genes play an important antiapoptotic role in spermatogenesis.
