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 studied the interactions of the CO(2)-concentrating mechanism and variable light in the filamentous cyanobacterium Leptolyngbya sp. CPCC 696 acclimated to low light (15 μmol m(-2) s(-1) PPFD) and low inorganic carbon (50 μM Ci). Mass spectrometric and polarographic analysis revealed that mediated CO(2) uptake along with both active Na(+)-independent and Na(+)-dependent HCO(3)(-) transport, likely through Na(+)/HCO(3)(-) symport, were employed to concentrate Ci internally. Combined transport of CO(2) and HCO(3)(-) required about 30 kJ mol(-1) of energy from photosynthetic electron transport to support an intracellular Ci accumulation 550-fold greater than the external Ci. Initially, Leptolyngbya rapidly induced oxygen evolution and Ci transport to reach 40-50% of maximum values by 50 μmol m(-2) s(-1) PPFD. Thereafter, photosynthesis and Ci transport increased gradually to saturation around 1,800 μmol m(-2) s(-1) PPFD. Leptolyngbya showed a low intrinsic susceptibility to photoinhibition of oxygen evolution up to PPFD of 3,000 μmol m(-2) s(-1). Intracellular Ci accumulation showed a lag under low light but then peaked at about 500 μmol photons m(-2) s(-1) and remained high thereafter. Ci influx was accompanied by a simultaneous, light-dependent, outward flux of CO(2) and by internal CO(2)/HCO(3)(-) cycling. The high-affinity and high-capacity CCM of Leptolyngbya responded dynamically to fluctuating PPFD and used excitation energy in excess of the needs of CO(2) fixation by increasing Ci transport, accumulation and Ci cycling. This capacity may allow Leptolyngbya to tolerate periodic exposure to excess high light by consuming electron equivalents and keeping PSII open.
