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 have determined the nucleotide sequence of both genomic and complementary DNA (cDNA) for the gene encoding the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase from the ciliated protozoan Tetrahymena thermophila. The amino acid sequence for the enzyme has also been derived from the cDNA sequence. The gene contains an open reading frame of 1260 nucleotides encoding 420 amino acids. Coding sequence in genomic DNA is interrupted by two introns at positions corresponding to introns 3 and 4 in mammalian phosphoglycerate kinase genes. The derived amino acid sequence was used to prepare a phylogeny by aligning the Tetrahymena sequence with 25 other phosphoglycerate kinase amino acid sequences. The Tetrahymena sequence is a typical eukaryotic sequence. There is recognizable and clear homology across species that cover nearly the complete range of life forms. The phylogenetic reconstruction of these sequences generally supports the conclusions that have been reached using rRNA sequences.
