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-harvesting antenna (LH) proteins of Rhodospirillum rubrum are encoded by pufA and pufB with C-terminal extensions not present in the mature proteins. Point mutations were introduced into pufB, pufA, and both pufB and pufA so that proteins equivalent to the mature proteins were encoded. The mutants with these truncated proteins produced 3-30% of the wild-type level of LH. These findings suggest that the C-terminal extensions are required for wild-type levels of LH.
