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 full-length cDNA of mitochondrial heat-shock protein (hsp) 60 of the infective-stage larva of Trichinella spiralis was cloned by degenerative PCR and rapid amplification of cDNA end reactions. The 1,945 bp full-length cDNA sequence contained an open reading frame of 576 amino acids. A mitochondrial signal peptide was located at the N-terminal and a GGM motif at the C-terminal. The gene contained ten exons and nine introns. RT-PCR analysis indicated that thermal, cold, acidic and oxidative treatment did not elicit significant changes in the expression of mitochondrial hsp 60 in the larvae. Cluster analysis showed that the sequence of the hsp 60 gene of T. spiralis is closely related to that of Drosophila melanogaster.
