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

Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) can be used in many applications to produce polypeptides and to analyze mechanisms of mRNA translation. Here we describe how to make and use a CPFS system from the model filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa. The extensive genetic resources available in this system provide capacities to exploit robust CFPS for understanding translational control. Included are procedures for the growth and harvesting of cells, the preparation of cell-free extracts that serve as the source of the translational machinery in the CFPS and the preparation of synthetic mRNA to program the CFPS. Methods to accomplish cell-free translation and analyze protein synthesis, and to map positions of ribosomes on mRNAs by toeprinting, are described.
