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

Crayfish is a common model animal for different experimental purposes. However, the lack of information about the genetic properties of the animal limits its use in comparison to other model animals. In the present study, a putative crayfish sodium/calcium exchanger gene has firstly been cloned in ganglia cDNA samples by conducting a series of PCR experiments, where a set of degenerate and specific primers and RACE method were used. The complete sequence is 2955 bp, and the ORF is 2718 bp in length. Molecular properties of the calculated peptide were similar to the sodium/calcium exchangers reported in the other species. Analysis of the qPCR data indicated that the putative gene has the highest expression level in the ganglia. However, an apparently elevated level of expression is observed in highly active tissues like heart, muscle and intestine, while the least expression level was observed in the stomach samples. It was proposed that the cloned gene may code the sodium/calcium exchanger protein in the crayfish.
