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 Drosophila retina has an autonomous peripheral circadian clock in which the expression of the gene encoding heme oxygenase (HO) is under circadian control with the ho mRNA peaking at the beginning of the day and in the middle of the night. The function of HO in the retina is unknown, but we observed that it regulates the circadian clock and protects photoreceptors against DNA damage. The decline in HO level increases and decreases the expression of the canonical clock genes period (per) and Clock (Clk), respectively. The opposite result was observed after increasing HO expression. Among three products of HO activity-carbon monoxide (CO), ferrous ions, and biliverdin-the latter has no effect on per and Clk expressions, but CO exerts the same effect as the increase of ho expression. This suggests that HO action on the clock is mediated by CO, which may affect Clk expression during the day and the level of per expression. While ho expression is not stimulated by nitric oxide (NO), NO has the same effect on the clock as HO, increasing Clk expression and decreasing the expression of per.
