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

In situ hybridization coupled with electron microscopy has been used to locate mRNAs for the small and large subunits of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxlase in young leaf tissue of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants. The endogeneous mRNAs were hybridized with either a biotinylated DNA probe for the small subunit or large subunit and subsequently visualized using avidin-ferritin conjugates at the electron microscope level. In the tissue incubated with the small subunit cDNA probe, the cytoplasm was uniformly labeled with ferritin indicating the presence of the target mRNA; this was particularly visible in cells which had under-gone some structural damage. In the case of the LSU probe, the ferritin marker was shown to be exclusively associated with the plastid stroma in intact leaf cells. The compartmentation of cytoplasmic small subunit mRNA versus plastid large subunit mRNA has been confirmed by direct visualization of in situ hybridization.
