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

When faced with amino acid starvation, prokaryotic cells induce a stringent response that modulates their physiology. The stringent response is manifested by production of signaling molecules guanosine 5'-diphosphate,3'-diphosphate (ppGpp) and guanosine 5'-triphosphate,3'-diphosphate (pppGpp) that are also called alarmones. In many species, alarmone levels are regulated by a multidomain bifunctional alarmone synthetase/hydrolase called Rel. In this enzyme, there is an ACT domain at the carboxyl region that has an unknown function; however, similar ACT domains are present in other enzymes that have roles in controlling amino acid metabolism. In many cases, these other ACT domains have been shown to allosterically regulate enzyme activity through the binding of amino acids. Here, we show that the ACT domain present in the
