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

B cell receptor (BCR) accessory molecules CD79a and CD79b homologs were identified in the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus. Both are found as single copy genes that encode proteins containing a signal peptide, an extracellular immunoglobulin domain, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic tail containing an immune-receptor tyrosine-dased activation motif (ITAM). IpCD79a and IpCD79b transcripts correlate well with IgM message expression. They are highly expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL) enriched in membrane (m) IgM+ cells and catfish clonal B cell lines, but not in catfish clonal T cells, indicating that IpCD79a and IpCD79b expression is B cell restricted. Studies using catfish clonal B cells (3B11) transfected with constructs encoding epitope-tagged IpCD79a and IpCD79b revealed that IpCD79a was expressed as a 45 kDa protein and IpCD79b was expressed as a 32 kDa protein. Furthermore, co-immunoprecipitations of epitope-tagged CD79 proteins demonstrate that these molecules are non-covalently associated with mIgM. These data correlate with some of the previous immunoprecipitation data demonstrating that catfish mIgM associates with proteins of 45 and 32 kDa.
