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

In order to analyse whether a C-terminal polybasic sequence represents a nuclear localization signal (NLS) we obtained several truncated and mutant forms of protein of regerating liver (PRL)-3 and evaluated their subcellular localization as compared to the wild-type form. Our results invalidate the hypothesis that this is an NLS. We also analysed the influence of the C- and N-terminal residues on the phosphatase activity of PRL-3. Our results provide in vitro evidence that the C-terminal CAAX motif, besides directing the protein farnesylation, plays an additional regulatory role by inhibiting the catalytic efficiency of PRL-3. Taking into account the results we obtained, as well as reported data, we propose a hypothetical molecular mechanism for the nucleocytoplasmic localization and transfer of PRL-3.
