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

Anisomycin, an antibiotic that specifically inhibits the peptidyl transfer function of eukaryotic ribosomes, has been used to select resistant mutants in Tetrahymena thermophila. A mutation conferring anisomycin resistance (an-r) has been localized to a 1.2-kb fragment of the large subunit ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene by transformation via microinjection. A single base pair change was detected within this region. Nine independently isolated an-r mutants had the same base pair change. T. thermophila strains that are homozygous for this mutation are cold sensitive, unable to mate and grossly abnormal in cell morphology.
