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

Transglutaminase (TG) is a family of enzymes that catalyzes cross-linking reactions among proteins. Using fluorescent-labeled highly reactive substrate peptides, we recently developed a system to visualize isozyme-specific in situ enzymatic activity. In the present study, we investigated the in situ activities of TG1 (skin-type) and TG2 (tissue-type) using whole mouse sections of various embryonic developmental stages and neonates. In each case, we also successfully used immunostaining of identical whole mouse sections for protein expression after detection of enzymatic activities. In general, the enzymatic activity was correlated with TG protein expression. However, in some tissues, TG protein expression patterns, which were inconsistent with the enzymatic activities, suggested that inactive TGs were produced possibly by self cross-linking or other modifications. Our method allowed us to simultaneously observe developmental variations in both TG isozyme-specific activities and protein levels in mouse embryonic and neonate tissues.
