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

The P450 enzymes maintain a conserved P450 fold despite a considerable variation in sequence. The P450 family even includes proteins that lack the single conserved cysteine and are therefore no longer haem-thiolate proteins. The mechanisms of successive gene duplications leading to large families in plants and animals are well established. Comparisons of P450 CYP gene clusters in related species illustrate the rapid changes in CYPome sizes. Examples of CYP copy number variation with effects on fitness are emerging, and these provide an opportunity to study the proximal causes of duplication or pseudogenization. Birth and death models can explain the proliferation of CYP genes that is amply illustrated by the sequence of every new genome. Thus, the distribution of P450 diversity within the CYPome of plants and animals, a few families with many genes (P450 blooms) and many families with few genes, follows similar power laws in both groups. A closer look at some families with few genes shows that these, often single member families, are not stable during evolution. The enzymatic prowess of P450 may predispose them to switch back and forth between metabolism of critical structural or signal molecules and metabolism dedicated to environmental response.
