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
Schizosaccharomyces pombe Aps1 is an enzyme that degrades both diadenosine oligophosphates (Ap(n)A, n =5 or 6) and diphosphoinositol polyphosphates [diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate (PP-InsP(5)) and bisdiphosphoinositol tetrakisphosphate ([PP](2)-InsP(4))] in vitro. The in vivo substrates of Aps1 are unknown. We report here the identification of Ap(5)A, PP-InsP(5), [PP](2)-InsP(4) and a novel diphosphoinositol polyphosphate ([PP](x)-InsP(x)) in S. pombe using HPLC methods. Ap(5)A was present at 0.06 pmol/mg of protein (approx. 4 nM). PP-InsP(5), [PP](x)-InsP(x) and [PP](2)-InsP(4) were present at 15 pmol/mg (approx. 1.1 microM), 15 pmol/mg (approx. 1.1 microM) and 30 pmol/mg (approx. 2.2 microM) respectively, while the intracellular concentration of InsP(6) was 0.5 nmol/mg of protein (approx. 36 microM). Disruption of aps1 resulted in a 52% decrease in Ap(6)A hydrolase activity in vitro, no detectable change in the intracellular Ap(5)A concentration, and 3-fold increased intracellular concentrations of PP-Ins P(5) and [PP](x)-InsP(x). Disruption of aps1 resulted in no detectable change in morphology or growth rate in minimal or rich media at 30 degrees C. Overexpression of aps1 via two different plasmids that resulted in 60% and 6-fold increases above wild-type enzymic activity in vitro caused no detectable changes in the intracellular concentrations of [PP](2)-InsP(4), [PP](x)-InsP(x) or PP-InsP(5), but paradoxical increases of approx. 2.5- and 55-fold respectively in the intracellular Ap(5)A concentration. Overexpression of aps1 also resulted in a reduced growth rate and in morphological changes, including swollen, rounded and multiseptate cells. No phenotypic changes or changes in intracellular Ap(5)A occurred upon overexpression of aps1 E93Q, which encodes a mutated Aps1 lacking significant enzymic activity. We conclude that Aps1 degrades PP-InsP(5) and [PP](x)-InsP(x) in vivo.
