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

The complete gene giant muscle protein obscurin, a modular protein composed largely of tandem Ig-domains, GDP/GTP exchange factor domains (GEF) for small G-proteins, and differentially spliced kinase domains, was analysed. The splice donor and acceptor sites of the 117 exons give important clues for potential splice pathways. The fusion of the conventional obscurin A, containing only the GEF domain, and obscurin B, fusing into the 3' kinase exons, was experimentally confirmed and analysed. The linker between the two kinases contains multiple predicted phosphorylation sites, as well as a predicted NFX zinc finger domain. Both kinases show only weak homology to either myosin light chain kinases or other giant muscle protein kinases, suggesting that they are functionally distinct.
