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.
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
By using the recently developed man-made DNA cutter [a combination of Ce(IV)/EDTA and two DNA additives], green fluorescent protein (GFP) was converted to closely related blue fluorescent protein (BFP). The phosphodiester linkages at T196-A200 in the sense strand of GFP were hydrolyzed by the cutter, and the A1-T196 fragment in the product was selectively connected with the downstream fragment (C197-A720) of BFP by T4 DNA ligase. This recombination changed three codons in the GFP gene (TGC at 196-198, TAT at 199-201, and ACC at 502-504) to TCT, CAT, and ATC in BFP, and accordingly three amino acids in GFP (Cys65, Tyr66, and Thr167) were altered to Ser65, His66, and Ile167. The recombinant gene was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli and emitted blue fluorescence, confirming the absence of undesired side reactions (mutation, deletion, insertion, depurination, etc.) in the DNA manipulation.
