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

Sialyltransferases are Golgi type II transmembrane glycoproteins involved in the biosynthesis of sialylated glycolipids and glycoproteins. These sialylated compounds play fundamental roles in the development of a variety of tissues including the nervous system. In this study, we have molecularly cloned from zebrafish sources, the orthologues of the six human alpha2,8-sialyltransferases (ST8Sia), a family of sialyltransferases implicated in the alpha2-8-mono-, oligo-, and poly-sialylation of glycoproteins and gangliosides and we have analysed their expression pattern in the embryonic zebrafish nervous system, using in situ hybridization. Our results show that all six ST8Sia exhibit distinct and overlapping patterns of expression in the developing zebrafish central nervous system with spatial and temporal regulation of the expression of these genes, which suggests a role for the alpha2-8-sialylated compounds in the developing nervous system.
