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 structures of the genomic DNA of the murine beta1- and beta4-subunits of the voltage-dependent calcium channel were mapped by comparing genomic and cDNA sequences. The gene structure analysis revealed that the murine beta1 gene consists of 15 translated exons spread over 19 kb of the genome, whereas the beta4 gene consists of 13 translated exons spread over 124 kb of the genome. Alternative spliced transcripts of the beta1 gene were also characterized. Although the total lengths differ, these subunits have exon-intron organization similar to the murine beta2- and beta3-, and human beta4-subunits, showing the highly conserved gene structure of this family. Furthermore, mRNA of these beta-subunits is strongly expressed in dorsal root ganglion neurons, which have many voltage-dependent calcium channels.
