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

Dictyostelium discoideum contains a soluble actin-binding protein that caps actin filaments at their fast growing ends. The purified protein consists of two subunits with 34 kd and 32 kd apparent mol. wts. Like similar proteins from Acanthamoeba and bovine brain the capping protein from D. discoideum acts in a Ca -independent manner. It lacks severing activity as indicated by its inability to disrupt the stress fibers and the microfilament network in detergent-extracted cells. Two actin-binding proteins from a plasma membrane-enriched fraction were labeled with [I]actin using a gel overlay technique. One of these proteins, with an apparent mol. wt. of 17 kd in SDS-polyacrylamide gels, has been purified from high-salt extracts, the other protein with an apparent mol. wt. of 31 kd has been purified from Triton X-100 extracted membranes. Monoclonal antibodies were raised against D. discoideum severin, alpha-actinin, the larger subunit of the capping protein, and the 17-kd membrane-associated protein. Immunoblotting of proteins from whole cell lysates showed that all these actin-binding proteins were present in both growth phase and aggregation-competent cells.
