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

Rod photoreceptor cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE6) consists of a catalytic subunit complex (Palphabeta) and two inhibitory subunits (Pgamma). In the accompanying article, using bovine photoreceptor outer segment homogenates, we show that Pgamma as a complex with the GTP-bound transducin alpha subunit (GTP-Talpha) dissociates from Palphabetagammagamma on membranes, and the Palphabetagammagamma becomes Pgamma-depleted. Here, we identify and characterize the Pgamma-depleted PDE. After incubation with or without guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPgammaS), Palphabeta complexes are extracted. When a hypotonic buffer is used, Palphabetagammagamma, Palphabetagamma, and a negligible amount of a Palphabeta complex containing Pgamma are isolated with GTPgammaS, and only Palphabetagammagamma is obtained without GTPgammaS. When an isotonic buffer containing Pdelta, a prenyl-binding protein, is used, Palphabetagammagammadelta, Palphabetagammadeltadelta, and a negligible amount of a Palphabeta complex containing Pgamma and Pdelta are isolated with GTPgammaS, and Palphabetagammagammadelta is obtained without GTPgammaS. Neither Palphabeta nor Palphabetagammagamma complexed with GTPgammaS-Talpha is found under any condition we examined. Palphabetagamma has approximately 12 times higher PDE activity and approximately 30 times higher Pgamma sensitivity than those of Palphabetagammagamma. These results indicate that the Pgamma-depleted PDE is Palphabetagamma. Isolation of Palphabetagammagammadelta and Palphabetagammadeltadelta suggests that one C-terminus of Palphabeta is involved in the Palphabetagammagamma interaction with membranes, and that Pgamma dissociation opens another C-terminus for Pdelta binding, which may lead to the expression of high PDE activity. Cone PDE behaves similarly to rod PDE in the anion exchange column chromatography. We conclude that the mechanisms for PDE activation are similar in mammalian and amphibian photoreceptors as well as in rods and cones.
