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

Polycomb group protein BMI1, plays a central role in the stem cell pluripotency and development in metazoans. A gene encoding BMI1 homologue in the Schistosoma japonicum (SjBMI1) was cloned and identified. The deduced amino acid sequence shows high identity to the homologues from Schistosoma mansoni and Homo sapiens. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis revealed that the SjBMI1 is highly expressed in adult worms and eggs, not in cercariae. By immunofluorescent studies, SjBMI1 was localized to testes, ovaries of mixed sex infected adult worms, but not of single sex infected adult worms. The study reveals the SjBMI1 expression profile in developmental stages and localization characteristic and provides a clue that it may be associated with reproductive development of S. japonicum.
