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

Rhodanese is a multifunctional, sulfur transferase that catalyzes the detoxification of cyanide by sulphuration in a double displacement (ping pong) mechanistic reaction. In the present study, small-insert metagenomic library from soil sample collected from Ladakh (3,000-3,600 m.a.s.l) in northwestern Himalayas, India was constructed. Function-driven screening of ~8,500 colonies led to the isolation of one esterase-positive clone (clone-est) harboring 2.43 kb insert. Sequence analysis of the insert identified two ORF's, phosM encoding phosphoesterase and rodM encoding rhodanese. The 800 bp rodM gene encoded a polypeptide of 227 amino acids (RodM). The RodM showed maximum homology with the rhodanese-like protein from Cyanobacterium synechococcus species with a score identity of only 51 %. Putative 3D structure of RodM developed by homology modeling resembles to homodimeric protein of SUD sulfur transferase of Wolinella succinogenes with properly structured active-site cysteine (Cys) residue. Rhodanese has been reported from few culturable microorganisms.
