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

5'-Nucleotidase was isolated from the electric organ of the electric ray Torpedo marmorata after solubilization in Triton X-100 and deoxycholate by affinity chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose and AMP-Sepharose. The purified enzyme has a Km for AMP of 38 microM, with a maximal velocity of 31 units/mg of protein. Of the purine and pyrimidine mononucleotides, AMP is hydrolysed most effectively. beta-Glycerophosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate and p-nitrophenyl phosphate are not substrates for the enzyme. Adenosine 5'-[alpha, beta-methylene]diphosphate, ADP and ATP are competitive inhibitors in this order of potency. Concanavalin A inhibits enzyme activity in a non-competitive manner. Whereas Mg2+, Ca2+ and Sr2+ activate enzyme activity in the millimolar range, Hg2+, and in particular Pb2+ and Zn2+, inhibit enzyme activity. On SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis the enzyme has an apparent Mr of 62000, whereas that of the native deoxycholate-enzyme complex is 131000. An antiserum raised against the native enzyme inhibits enzyme activity. Inhibition studies suggest the presence of tissue-specific variants of the enzyme. By immunohistochemical analysis the enzyme can be localized to the ramifications of nerve terminals in the electric organ.
