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

We evaluated a method for protein engineering using plasmid-based one-pot saturation mutagenesis and robot-based automated screening. When the biases in nucleotides and amino acids were assessed for a loss-of-function point mutation in green fluorescent protein, the ratios of gain-of-function mutants were not significantly different from the expected values for the primers among the three different suppliers. However, deep sequencing analysis revealed that the ratios of nucleotides in the primers were highly biased among the suppliers. Biases for NNB were less severe than for NNN. We applied this method to screen a fusion protein of two chitinases, ChiA and ChiB (ChiAB). Three NNB codons as well as tyrosine and serine (X
