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

Heat shock cognate 70-kDa protein (RH-Hsc70) was identified from a cDNA library synthesized from the sialotranscriptomes of unfed and fed Rhipicephalus haemaphysaloides. The RH-Hsc70 open reading frame is 1950 bp long and encodes a protein that is 649 amino acids in length, with a predicted molecular weight of 71.1 kDa and a theoretical pI of 5.43. RH-Hsc70 exhibits 98% amino acid identity with Hsc70 in Haemaphysalis flava and 83% identity with Hsc70 in arthropods and mammals. RH-Hsc70 was mainly expressed in nymphs and adult ticks, not in larvae. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis indicated that RH-Hsc70 mRNA expression was induced by blood feeding in adult ticks. In addition, RH-Hsc70 gene expression was higher in the ovaries of fed adult ticks than that in the midguts, salivary glands, and fat bodies of unfed or fed adult ticks. RH-Hsc70 gene knockdown inhibited tick blood feeding, significantly decreased tick engorgement rate, and increased tick death rate. These data illustrate the importance of RH-Hsc70 in tick blood feeding and aging, which makes it a promising candidate for the development of anti-tick vaccines.
