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

The transmembrane signaling subunits (TSSs) bearing the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) play a crucial role in triggering the effector functions of mammalian leukocytes. The involvement in key immune reactions and obvious extension through duplication events make TSSs valuable markers of the evolution of the immune system. We surveyed the genomic sequences of the teleostean fish Fugu rubripes for the presence of genes encoding these accessory molecules. Automatic gene prediction was not efficient because of the poor ability of the programs used to recognize the short exons encoding the intracellular regions of TSSs. However, the unique compactness of the Fugu genome and the conservation of the exon/intron arrangements of the TSS genes facilitated their recognition by visual inspection of the candidate genomic sequences. Evidence for the presence of the CD3epsilon, CD3gamma/delta, CD79a, CD79b, TCRzeta, FcRgamma, DAP12 and DAP10 genes in the Fugu genome was obtained. Furthermore, conserved synteny for the short regions including the TSS genes was revealed by comparison of the Fugu and human genomes. The data demonstrate that the set of TSSs arose before the teleost-tetrapod split and provide a starting point for experimental investigation of the molecular evolution of the leukocyte-activating receptor complexes from fish species to mammals.
