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 subjected the genes encoding the 19.3-, 21.3c-, and 51-kDa iron-sulfur subunits of respiratory chain complex I from Neurospora crassa to site-directed mutagenesis to mimic mutations in human complex I subunits associated with mitochondrial diseases. The V135M substitution was introduced into the 19.3-kDa cDNA, the P88L and R111H substitutions were separately introduced into the 21.3c-kDa cDNA, and the A353V and T435M alterations were separately introduced into the 51-kDa cDNA. The altered cDNAs were expressed in the corresponding null-mutants under the control of a heterologous promoter. With the exception of the A353V polypeptide, all mutated subunits were able to promote assembly of a functional complex I, rescuing the phenotypes of the respective null-mutants. Complex I from these strains displays spectroscopic and enzymatic properties similar to those observed in the wild-type strain. A decrease in total complex I amounts may be the major impact of the mutations, although expression levels of mutant genes from the heterologous promoter were sometimes lower and may also account for complex I levels. We discuss these findings in relation to the involvement of complex I deficiencies in mitochondrial disease.
