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

The F420-reducing hydrogenase has been known as a key enzyme in methanogenesis. Its homologs have been identified in non-methanogenic hyperthermophilic archaea, including Thermococcus onnurineus NA1, but neither physiological function nor biochemical properties have been reported to date. The enzyme of T. onnurineus NA1 was distinguished from those of other methanogens and the members of the family Desulfurobacteriaceae with respect to the phylogenetic distribution of the α and β subunits, organization of frhAGB genes and conservation of F420-coordinating residues. RT-qPCR and Western blot analyses revealed frhA gene is not silent but is expressed in T. onnurineus NA1 grown in the presence of sulfur, carbon monoxide, or formate. The trimeric enzyme complex was purified to homogeneity via affinity chromatography from T. onnurineus NA1 and exhibited catalytic activity toward the electron acceptors such as viologens and flavins but not the deazaflavin coenzyme F420. This is the first biochemical study on the function of the frhAGB-encoding enzyme from a non-methanogenic archaea.
