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 identity of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) involved in T cell activation pathways remains unclear. We identified a 68-kD GTP-binding protein associated with the T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex using immunoprecipitation and GTP-affinity labeling techniques. Proteins coimmunoprecipitated with the TCR/CD3 complex in digitonin lysate of a human leukemic T cell line, MOLT 16, were incubated with alpha-[32P]GTP and irradiated with ultraviolet rays to covalently link the labeled GTP to GTP-binding proteins. They were then analyzed by electrophoresis. The 68-kD protein exhibited nucleotide specificity for GTP-binding and was insensitive to cholera and pertussis toxins. The 68-kD GTP-binding protein could be coimmunoprecipitated with the TCR/CD3 complex but not with other surface molecules such as major histocompatibility complex class I and lymphocyte function associated-1, which do not cause rapid Ca2+ mobilization. These suggest that the 68-kD GTP-binding protein is specifically associated with the TCR/CD3 complex.
