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

Proteins secreted by Trichinella spiralis have a potential role in remodelling host skeletal muscle. However, whilst many parasite-secreted proteins have been identified, it has rarely been demonstrated that these are secreted into the nurse cell. Using an informatics-based analysis, we have searched the T. spiralis expressed sequence tag (EST) datasets for cDNAs encoding potential secreted proteins. Here we describe the characterisation of three of the top candidates isolated from our analysis, termed secreted from muscle stage larvae (SML)-1, -2 and -3. All three proteins were demonstrated to be secreted by muscle stage larvae, and immunohistochemical analysis established that SML-1 and -2 are secreted into developing nurse cells. We also show that SML-2 is processed from a precursor into smaller peptides by a metalloprotease contained within T. spiralis-secreted products. With the identification of these and other secreted proteins, we now have molecules to test in functional assays designed to dissect molecular features of the developing nurse cell.
