Signal sequence analysis of protein sequences from the filarial nematode parasite Brugia malayi and the evolution of secreted proteins in parasites.
Article in Parasitology research, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Taking a genomic approach to characterize potential secreted products, we analyzed putative protein sequences from Brugia malayi whole-genome shotgun sequencing project. SignalP analysis was applied to predict protein sequences and to identify potential signal peptides and anchors. We randomly analyzed 552 sequences, of which 88 (15.9%) bear predicted signal sequence coding regions. Through comparisons of sequences with homologs from other species, we found that although some of the sequences with signal sequences have no homologs with others, there are almost the same amounts of the sequences with signals which are highly conserved. Considering the distribution of secretory proteins of B. malayi in three categories has not made big differences, and most of the homologues of free-living nematodes of these secretory proteins also contained either N-signal signal peptides or signal anchors; we speculated that secretory proteins may be in the same evolutional status as the non-secretory proteins.
