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

We cloned and sequenced two actin promoters from Physarum, and constructed plasmids carrying these promoters upstream of a bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) gene. We then tested the plasmids for their ability to express cat in Physarum amoebae. We present reliable methods for introducing plasmid DNA into Physarum amoebae by electroporation, and show that expression of the cat gene in amoebae occurs in the presence, but not the absence, of one or the other Physarum actin promoter.
