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 describe a novel regulatory myosin light chain gene (termed precursor lymphocyte-specific regulatory light chain or PLRLC) that is expressed specifically in precursor B and T lymphocytes. PLRLC is the first example of a regulatory myosin light chain gene which displays specific expression in non-muscle cells. PLRLC is expressed in adult bone marrow derived normal and transformed pre-B cells; in the former, PLRLC expression levels are induced by the pre-B cell specific growth factor interleukin-7 (IL-7). PLRLC is not expressed in either transformed pre-B cells derived from fetal liver or in normal fetal liver pre-B clones grown in the presence of IL-7. Therefore this gene provides the first marker that clearly distinguishes these two pre-B subsets. Finally, several of the different PLRLC transcripts potentially encode regulatory myosin light chains with unique structural features. The unique distribution, regulation and structural features of the PLRLC gene products suggest an important role for PLRLC during lymphocyte development.
