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

Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbits to a mixture of sodium-dodecyl-sulphate-denatured C- and allo-phycocyanin, isolated from Anabaena cylindrica, cross-react with 124-kilodalton (kDa) phytochrome from etiolated oats, in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and on Western blots. The component(s) of the anti-phycocyanin serum that cross-reacts with phytochrome appears to be specific for the red-absorbing form of phytochrome (Pr). These antibodies can be detached from Pr by irradiation with red light, and thus show photoreversible binding. This property has been used to immunopurify the anti-phytochrome component from the antiserum using red light as the eluting agent. Competition assays and epitope-mapping studies indicate that the anti-phytochrome component may bind to a site located between 6 and 10 kDa from the amino-terminus of etiolated oat phytochrome.
