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

Both muscle and nonmuscle actins produced magnesium paracrystals which we found indistinguishable from one another. Contrary to some previous reports, calcium ions caused no change in filament organization for either type of actin. The most ordered paracrystals consisted of hexagonally packed filaments with opposite polarities. We suggest that this mode of packing permits a form of disorder not previously described, which may account for some puzzling aspects of earlier observations and may prove useful in analyzing actin bundles formed, for example, with erythrocyte band 4.9 protein.
