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 light-induced electron transport in purple bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides was studied in vivo by means of kinetic difference absorption spectroscopy and kinetics of bacteriochlorophyll fluorescence yield. Measurements of redox state of the oxidised primary donor and cytochrome c and the membrane potential revealed a complex pattern of changes of the electron flow. Effects of the membrane potential on the fluorescence yield were also analysed, and a model for the fluorescence induction curve is presented. The data indicate substantial positive effect of the membrane potential on the fluorescence emission in vivo. Moreover, light-induced changes in light scattering were observed, which suggests occurrence of structural changes on the level of the photosynthetic membrane.
