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

Complete genome analysis of the thermoacidophilic Archaeon Sulfolobus tokodaii strain 7 revealed two open reading frames (ORF), namely, ST0926 and ST0927. These ORFs are interrupted by two putative insertions and encode for the N- and C-terminal fragments, respectively, of a putative Sulfolobus sp. maltooligosyltrehalose trehalohydrolase (StMTHase). Two specific deletion mutations, designed on the basis of sequence alignments of the adjacent ORFs and the published Sulfolobus sp. MTHases, allowed soluble expression in Escherichia coli of an active acidic and thermophilic enzyme. The purified enzyme exhibited a maximum amylolytic activity at 70 °C and pH 5.0, which resembled the optimal conditions of the Sulfolobus homologs. Furthermore, we report that these ORFs are actively co-transcribed in vivo, and we confirm the presence of insertions between them at the cDNA level. However, immunization and western blot experiments demonstrated no expression of ST0926 or the putative full-length StMTHase in vivo, indicating that they might exist as nonfunctional pseudogenes.
