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

Pyrobaculum calidifontis genome harbors an open reading frame Pcal_0111 annotated as fructose bisphosphate aldolase. Although the gene is annotated as fructose bisphosphate aldolase, it exhibits a high homology with previously reported fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase/phosphatase from Thermoproteus neutrophilus. To examine the biochemical properties of Pcal_0111, we have cloned and expressed the gene in Escherichia coli. Purified recombinant Pcal_0111 catalyzed both phosphatase and aldolase reactions with specific activity values of 4 U and 1.3 U, respectively. These values are highest among the fructose 1,6-bisphosphatases/aldolases characterized from archaea. The enzyme activity increased linearly with the increase in temperature until 100 °C. Recombinant Pcal_0111 is highly stable with a half-life of 120 min at 100 °C. There was no significant change in the circular dichroism spectra of the protein up to 90 °C. The enzyme activity was not affected by AMP but strongly inhibited by ATP with an IC
