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 DevS histidine kinase of Mycobacterium smegmatis contains tandem GAF domains (GAF-A and GAF-B) in its N-terminal sensory domain. The heme iron of DevS is in the ferrous state when purified and is resistant to autooxidation from a ferrous to a ferric state in the presence of O(2). The redox property of the heme and the results of sequence comparison analysis indicate that DevS of M. smegmatis is more closely related to DosT of Mycobacterium tuberculosis than DevS of M. tuberculosis. The binding of O(2) to the deoxyferrous heme led to a decrease in the autokinase activity of DevS, whereas NO binding did not. The regulation of DevS autokinase activity in response to O(2) and NO was not observed in the DevS derivatives lacking its heme, indicating that the ligand-binding state of the heme plays an important role in the regulation of DevS kinase activity. The redox state of the quinone/quinol pool of the respiratory electron transport chain appears not to be implicated in the regulation of DevS activity. Neither cyclic GMP (cGMP) nor cAMP affected DevS autokinase activity, excluding the possibility that the cyclic nucleotides serve as the effector molecules to modulate DevS kinase activity. The three-dimensional structure of the putative GAF-B domain revealed that it has a GAF folding structure without cyclic nucleotide binding capacity.
