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

Methylated lysine and arginine residues in histones represent a crucial part of the histone code, and recognition of these methylated residues by protein interaction domains modulates transcription. Although some methylating enzymes appear to be histone specific, many can modify histone and non-histone substrates and an increasing number are specific for non-histone substrates. Some of the non-histone substrates can also be involved in transcription, but a distinct subset of protein methylation reactions occurs at residues buried deeply in ribosomal proteins that may function in protein-RNA interactions rather than protein-protein interactions. Additionally, recent work has identified enzymes that catalyze protein methylation reactions at new sites in ribosomal and other proteins. These reactions include modifications of histidine and cysteine residues as well as the N terminus.
