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.
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
The pathogenic isoform (PrP(Sc)) of the host-encoded cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) is considered to be an infectious agent of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). The detailed mechanism by which the PrP(Sc) seed catalyzes the structural conversion of endogenous PrP(C) into nascent PrP(Sc) in vivo still remains unclear. Recent studies reveal that bacterially derived recombinant PrP (recPrP) can be used as a substrate for the in vitro generation of protease-resistant recPrP (recPrP(res)) by protein-misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA). These findings imply that PrP modifications with a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor and asparagine (N)-linked glycosylation are not necessary for the amplification and generation of recPrP(Sc) by PMCA. However, the biological properties of PrP(Sc) obtained by in vivo transmission of recPrP(res) are unique or different from those of PrP(Sc) used as the seed, indicating that the mechanisms mediated by these posttranslational modifications possibly participate in reproductive propagation of PrP(Sc). In the present study, using baculovirus-derived recombinant PrP (Bac-PrP), we demonstrated that Bac-PrP is useful as a PrP(C) substrate for amplification of the mouse scrapie prion strain Chandler, and PrP(Sc) that accumulated in mice inoculated with Bac-PrP(res) had biochemical and pathological properties very similar to those of the PrP(Sc) seed. Since Bac-PrP modified with a GPI anchor and brain homogenate of Prnp knockout mice were both required to generate Bac-PrP(res), the interaction of GPI-anchored PrP with factors in brain homogenates is essential for reproductive propagation of PrP(Sc). Therefore, the Bac-PMCA technique appears to be extremely beneficial for the comprehensive understanding of the GPI anchor-mediated stimulation pathway.
