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

Phosphoethanolamine methyltransferases add three methyl groups successively to their substrate to produce phosphocholine, an important precursor for phospholipid biosynthesis in diverse organisms. New work from Lee and Jez reveals critical domain movements that explain how multiple methylation reactions are uniquely coordinated by plant methyltransferases and provides insights into the evolution of this class of enzymes. As opposed to closely related family members, the intermediates in this pathway are likely shuttled between two tethered domains to ensure complete methylation.
