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

We have successfully expressed recombinant mitochondrial-type ferredoxin (mtFd) and ferredoxin:NADP(+) reductase (mtFNR) from Cryptosporidium parvum and characterized their biochemical features for the first time for an apicomplexan. Both C. parvum mtFd (CpmtFd) and FNR (CpmtFNR) were obtained and purified as holo-proteins, in which the correct assembly of [2Fe-2S] cluster in Fd and that of FAD in FNR were confirmed and characterized by UV/vis and electron paramagnetic resonance. These proteins were fully functional and CpmtFNR was capable of transferring electrons from NADPH to CpmtFd in a cytochrome c-coupled assay that followed a typical Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Apicomplexan mtFd and mtFNR proteins were evolutionarily divergent from their counterparts in humans and animals and could be explored as potential drug targets in Cryptosporidium and other apicomplexans.
