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 composition of photosystem II (PSII) in the chlorophyll (Chl) d-dominated cyanobacterium Acaryochloris marina MBIC 11017 was investigated to enhance the general understanding of the energetics of the PSII reaction center. We first purified photochemically active complexes consisting of a 47-kDa Chl protein (CP47), CP43' (PcbC), D1, D2, cytochrome b(559), PsbI, and a small polypeptide. The pigment composition per two pheophytin (Phe) a molecules was 55 +/- 7 Chl d, 3.0 +/- 0.4 Chl a, 17 +/- 3 alpha-carotene, and 1.4 +/- 0.2 plastoquinone-9. The special pair was detected by a reversible absorption change at 713 nm (P713) together with a cation radical band at 842 nm. FTIR difference spectra of the specific bands of a 3-formyl group allowed assignment of the special pair. The combined results indicate that the special pair comprises a Chl d homodimer. The primary electron acceptor was shown by photoaccumulation to be Phe a, and its potential was shifted to a higher value than that in the Chl a/Phe a system. The overall energetics of PSII in the Chl d system are adjusted to changes in the redox potentials, with P713 as the special pair using a lower light energy at 713 nm. Taking into account the reported downward shift in the potential of the special pair of photosystem I (P740) in A. marina, our findings lend support to the idea that changes in photosynthetic pigments combine with a modification of the redox potentials of electron transfer components to give rise to an energetic adjustment of the total reaction system.
