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 cytoplasmic Syk kinase plays key roles in immune responses and comprises two N-terminal regulatory Src homology 2 (SH2) domains followed by a catalytic region. Atomic structures of these domains have only been solved in isolation. To gain insights into the three-dimensional structure of full-length Syk, we have used single-particle electron microscopy. Syk acquires a closed conformation resembling the inhibited structure of Zap-70, another member of the Syk family. Such configuration suggests an inhibition of the N-terminal domains on its catalytic activity. The phosphotyrosine binding pockets of both SH2 domains are not occluded and they could interact with other phosphoproteins.
