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

A full-length cDNA encoding a Rho-family small GTPase gene cdc42 of Trichinella spiralis was expressed in E. coli. The recombinant protein of TsCDC42 was purified and used to raise the polyclonal antibodies. The expression of TsCDC42 in different stages of parasite was investigated. The western blot showed that TsCDC42 was expressed in all stages of T. spiralis, including newborn larvae, muscle larvae and adult worms. The immuno-localization revealed that TsCDC42 was ubiquitously distributed in the newborn larvae, muscle larvae and adult worm. Cross-species RNAi was done by knockdown Tscdc42 RNAi in C. elegans. The results revealed that endogenous expression level of CDC42 was decreased by knockdown Tscdc42 RNAi in C. elegans, and this knockdown reduced the progeny of C. elegans. It suggested that Tscdc42 might play the same roles in the early development of T. spiralis.
