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 regulation of an elicitor-inducible sesquiterpene cyclase in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) cell suspension cultures was investigated. Sesquiterpene cyclase activity was absent from control cell cultures but induced to a maximum within 15 hours of cellulase addition to the cell cultures. The induction of the cyclase activity was correlated with an absolute amount of the cyclase protein as measured in immunoblots. Both the in vivo synthesis rate, measured as the incorporation of [(35)S]methionine by cell cultures into immunoprecipitable cyclase protein, and the cyclase mRNA translational activity, measured as the incorporation of [(35)S]methionine into immunoprecipitable cyclase protein synthesized by in vitro translation of isolated RNA, were maximal at that time when the increase in cyclase enzyme activity was maximal. Using thiouridine to selectively label and isolate de novo synthesized mRNA, the in vitro translation products encoded by the newly synthesized RNA from elicitor-treated, but not control, cell cultures contained immunoprecipitable cyclase protein. These results suggest that the induction of the sesquiterpene cyclase in elicitor-treated cell cultures is primarily regulated by transcriptional control of the cyclase gene.
