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

Membrane-bound guanylate cyclase activity was detected by ultracytochemistry at the electron microscope level in several mammalian tissues. The technique used in these studies allows the detection of active enzyme at the membrane site where it is located. In a few cases, such as normal and regenerating peripheral nerves and placenta, membrane-bound guanylate cyclase could be detected in the absence of stimulators of enzyme activity. However, in the majority of these studies membrane-bound guanylate cyclase was investigated following stimulation with natriuretic peptides, guanylin, or the Ca2+ sensor proteins, S100B and S100A1. In general, membrane-bound guanylate cyclase was localized to plasma membranes, in accordance with the functional role of this enzyme. Yet, in secretory cells the enzyme activity was localized on intracellular membranes, suggesting a role of membrane-bound guanylate cyclase in secretory processes. Finally, S100B and S100A1 were found to colocalize with membrane-bound guanylate cyclase on photoreceptor disc membranes and to stimulate enzyme activity at these sites in dark-adapted retinas in a Ca2+-dependent manner. The results of these analyses are discussed in relation to the proposed functional role(s) of this enzyme.
