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

Fesselin is an actin binding protein from smooth muscle that nucleates actin polymerization in a Ca(++)-calmodulin dependent manner, bundles actin and inhibits the actin-activated ATPase activity of myosin S1. We now report that fesselin binds to smooth muscle alpha-actinin. Binding was measured by blot overlay, affinity chromatography and sedimentation methods. Binding was moderate with an association constant of 1-4 x 10(7) M(-1) assuming a 1:1 association of fesselin with alpha-actinin. Fesselin binds to the central spectrin domain repeat region of alpha-actinin but not to the CH1-CH2 domain. Fesselin accelerates the polymerization of actin. This activity of fesselin was attenuated by alpha-actinin. These observations support the role of fesselin in organizing the cytoskeleton.
