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

Bile stimulates many intestinal parasites, and newly excysted juvenile Clonorchis sinensis (CsNEJ) responds chemotactically to bile and matures in the bile duct. In this study, using annealing control primer-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR), 16 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found to be upregulated in C. sinensis metacercariae incubated in bile. Using contigs retrieved from a C. sinensis-expressed sequence tag pool, DEG sequences were extended further by DNA-walking. Of these, five DEGs were annotated to functional genes and confirmed to have been upregulated by more than twofold by quantitative real-time PCR. The gene products of these DEGs were cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 2, and mitochondrial phosphate carrier protein, which are involved in energy generation, and HLA-B-associated transcript 3 and zinc finger protein, which are regulatory proteins associated with apoptosis and/or proliferation signaling pathways. Based on these results, it is suggested that bile stimulates the expressions of genes that produce the energy required by CsNEJs to migrate to the bile duct and to modulate the regulatory signals of cell proliferation associated with adult development.
