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
The halotolerant alga Dunaliella bardawil accumulates very large amounts of [beta]-carotene when exposed to high light intensity. The accumulated [beta]-carotene is concentrated in small, oily globules within the chloroplast and has been suggested to protect the alga against photodamage by high irradiation (A. Ben-Amotz, A. Katz, M. Avron [1982] J Phycol 18:529-537;A. Ben-Amotz, M. Avron [1983] Plant Physiol 72: 593-597; A. Ben-Amotz, A. Shaish, M. Avron [1989] Plant Physiol 91: 1040-1043). A 38-kD protein was identified and purified from [beta]-carotene globules and was designated carotene globule protein (Cgp). Induction of Cgp occurs in parallel with [beta]-carotene accumulation in D. bardawil grown under different inductive conditions. Cgp is overproduced in a constitutive mutant strain that overproduces [beta]-carotene and is not detected in Dunaliella salina, a species that does not accumulate [beta]-carotene. Cgp production was not suppressed by norflurazon, an inhibitor of [beta]-carotene synthesis that leads to accumulation of the carotenoid precursor phytoene. Immunogold-labeling analysis by electron microscopy demonstrates that the protein is localized at the periphery of the globules. Proteolytic cleavage by trypsin enhances the coalescence and destruction of the globules, in parallel with Cgp disappearance. It is suggested that the function of Cgp is to stabilize the structure of the globules within the chloroplast.
