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

In bean cells treated with fungal elicitor, the transcripts of PvPRP1, a gene encoding a proline-rich protein, decreased to ~6% of the original level within 4 hr. The apparent mRNA half-life during the period of rapid degradation was ~45 min. The rate of PvPRP1 gene transcription remained constant over this period, as determined by nuclear run-off assays, indicating a decrease in mRNA stability. By using actinomycin D to block transcription, the half-life of PvPRP1 mRNA in unelicited cells was estimated to be ~60 hr. In cells treated with actinomycin D followed by the addition of elicitor, the PvPRP1 mRNA half-life was ~18 hr, whereas cells treated with these reagents in reciprocal order exhibited a half-life of ~6 hr. The protein synthesis inhibitors emetine and anisomycin also inhibited the rate of PvPRP1 mRNA degradation in elicited cells. Based on these data, we concluded that the rapid decrease in the PvPRP1 mRNA level in elicited cells is due to destabilization, which is dependent on new RNA and protein synthesis.
