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

Two aldolases from the alga Cyanophora paradoxa (Glaucocystophyta) can be separated by chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-Fractogel. The two aldolases are inhibited by 1 mM ethylene-diaminetetraacetate (EDTA) and, therefore, are class II aldolases. When cells of C. paradoxa were fractionated, one aldolase was associated with the cytosol fraction and the other was associated with the cyanoplast fraction. The Km(fructose-1,6-bisphosphate) was 600 [mu]M for the cytosolic aldolase and 340 [mu]M for the cyanoplast aldolase. The activity of the cytosolic aldolase was increased up to 4-fold by 100 mM K+ and slightly inhibited by Li+ and Cs+, whereas the cyanoplast aldolase was not affected by these ions. Inactivation by 1 mM EDTA could be partly restored by the addition of Co2+ or Mn2+ and to a lesser extent by Zn2+ or Mg2+. The molecular masses of the native cytosolic and cyanoplast aldolases are about 90 and 85 kD, respectively, as estimated by velocity centrifugation in sucrose gradients. Implications for the evolution of class I and II aldolases in chloroplasts of higher plants and algae will be discussed.
