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

A novel pectate lyase of a deep subseafloor bacterium, Georgenia muralis strain JAM 3H7-3 (JCM19733), was purified to homogeneity from a culture broth by an anion exchange chromatography, followed by heat treatment of the enzyme solution at 60 °C for 30 min, and a gel filtration in the presence of SDS. The purified enzyme (Pel-S2) had a molecular mass of ~51 kDa by SDS-PAGE and ~75 kDa by gel filtration. In contrast, without heat treatment, the purified enzyme in SDS sample buffer was found to consist of 23- and 23.5-kDa polypeptides by SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was gradually inactivated by heat treatment with and without SDS in parallel with a shift of polypeptides molecular masses from 23 and 23.5 to 51 kDa on SDS-PAGE. Pel-S2 degraded pectate optimally at pH 10 in a glycine buffer and temperature of 50 °C. The enzyme showed relatively broad substrate specificity toward pectic acid and pectin.
