Structural and functional variations in skeletal-muscle and scallop muscle actins.
Article in The Biochemical journal, 1988. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Structural and functional properties in two striated-muscle actins, one from a vertebrate, the other from an invertebrate (scallop), were compared in relation to a smooth-muscle actin isoform (aortic actin). In spite of differences in the variable N-terminal region, the two striated-muscle isoactins showed, in contrast with aortic actin, a large structural homology revealed by proteinase-susceptibility and interaction with the myosin head. Thus the myosin head may bind to the two striated-muscle actins in constant parts of the 18-113 sequence. In contrast, antigenic reactivity of conformational epitopes of these actins strongly differentiated scallop actin from the two others. The behaviour of the scallop actin appears to be related to several amino acid substitutions located near or at functional domains such as monomer-monomer binding site, DNAase-I-dependent actin-actin binding site and actin-severing domain, which modified the polypeptide chain exposure.
