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

Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is an essential catalyst of the endoplasmic reticulum with folding and chaperone activities in different biological systems. Here, PDI of Clonorchis sinensis (CsPDI) was isolated from the cDNA library of adult C. sinensis. The open reading frame contains 1,317 bp encoding 438 amino acids and shares 53 %, 49 %, and 43 % identity with PDI from Bos taurus, Homo sapiens, and Schistosoma mansoni, respectively. Two catalytic thioredoxin motifs CxxC were found in this sequence, which were characteristic domains of thioredoxin superfamily. The CsPDI protein was expressed and purified from Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). According to western blotting analysis, the recombinant CsPDI could be recognized by anti-CsPDI rat serum, anti-excretory/secretory products rat serum, and serum of rat infected with C. sinensis, respectively. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction showed that transcription level of CsPDI in the metacercaria stage was six and four times higher than that in the adult worm and egg stage, respectively. Immunolocalization analysis showed CsPDI could be detected in the intestine, vitellarium, and intrauterine eggs of adult worm, as well as in the cyst wall and vitellarium of metacercaria. In addition, the strong fluorescence signal was observed both on the wall of bile duct and in the lumen of liver tissue of C. sinensis-infected cat. Those results demonstrated that CsPDI was a component of C. sinensis excretory-secretory products. The present study will enhance our understanding of biological functions of CsPDI and pave the way for further studies on host-parasite interaction during C. sinensis infection.
