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

We analyzed several natural suppressor isolates of the pKalilo-based fungal senescence syndrome of Neurospora intermedia. The pKalilo plasmid did not increase in titer in these isolates. Nor did it show integration "de novo." In at least two of the senescence suppressor isolates, pKalilo had formed stable recombinants with other mitochondrial elements. pKalilo/mtDNA recombination junctions were complete and appeared to have been formed via a nonhomologous recombination mechanism. Further analysis revealed that pKalilo had recombined a novel, 2.6-kb cryptic mitochondrial retroplasmid, similar to the mitochondrial retroplasmid pTHR1 from Trichoderma harzianum and retroplasmids of the "Varkud" homology group. The recombinant molecules consisted of pKalilo, the novel element, and short intervening stretches of mtDNA. The latter stretches clearly corresponded to "in vivo" mitochondrial cDNA, suggesting that the molecules had formed via the action of a template-switching reverse transcriptase. We discuss how different types of mitochondrial plasmids interact and how their detrimental effect on the host may be suppressed.
