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 alkaline ambient pH signal transduction pathway component PalC has no assigned molecular role. Therefore we attempted a gene-specific mutational analysis and obtained 55 new palC loss-of-function alleles including 24 single residue substitutions. Refined similarity searches reveal conserved PalC regions including one with convincing similarity to the BRO1 domain, denoted PCBROH, where clustering of mutational changes, including PCBROH key residue substitutions, supports its structural and/or functional importance. Since the BRO1 domain occurs in the multivesicular body (MVB) pathway protein Bro1/Vps31 and also the pH signal transduction protein PalA (Rim20), both of which interact with MVB component (ESCRT-III protein) Vps32/Snf7, this might reflect a further link between the pH response and endocytosis.
