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.
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
Fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c-binding protein (FCP) is a unique light-harvesting apparatus in diatoms. Several biochemical characteristics of FCP oligomer and trimer from different diatom species have been reported previously. However, the integration of information about molecular organizations and polypeptides of FCP through a comparison among diatoms has not been published. In this study, we used two-dimensional clear-native/SDS-PAGE to compare the oligomeric states and polypeptide compositions of FCP complexes from four diatoms: Chaetoceros gracilis, Thalassiosira pseudonana, Cyclotella meneghiniana, and Phaeodactylum tricornutum. FCP oligomer was found in C. gracilis, T. pseudonana, and C. meneghiniana, but not in P. tricornutum. The oligomerization varied among the three diatoms, although a predominant subunit having similar molecular weight was recovered in each FCP oligomer. These results suggest that the predominant subunit is involved in the formation of high FCP oligomerization in each diatom. In contrast, FCP trimer was found in all the diatoms. The trimerizations were quite similar, whereas the polypeptide compositions were markedly different. On the basis of this information and that from mass spectrometric analyses, the gene products in each FCP complex were identified in T. pseudonana and P. tricornutum. Based on these results, we discuss the role of FCP oligomer and trimer from the four diatoms.
