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

Most chloroplastic proteins are nuclear-encoded and must be transported into the organelle post-translationally. Proteinaceous components in the outer and inner envelope membranes of chloroplasts responsible for this import process were originally identified from pea seedlings. We sought to determine whether these proteins are conserved among different plant species other than pea and among different plastid types. We analyzed plant EST databases and found the presence of homologues to pea chloroplastic protein translocation components, Tic110 and Toc75, in both monocot and dicot species. Because these clones were obtained from various tissues, their presence in different types of plastids is proposed. Protein extracts were prepared from several plant species and from different plant tissues, and then probed with antisera raised against pea Tic110 and Toc75. The results support the idea that translocation components originally found in pea chloroplasts are conserved among different plant species and are present in various plastid types.
