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

This study is a proof of concept that the sponge derived pyrrole-imidazole alkaloid Ageladine A acts as an additional light harvesting molecule for photosynthesis of symbionts of marine sponges. The absorbance of Ageladine A is in the UV range and fluoresces blue, matching the blue absorbance of chlorophyll a. A joint modeling and experimental approach demonstrates that Ageladine A increases photosynthetic O2 production of Synechococcus bacillaris WH5701 (CCMP1333), when the cells are exposed to UV light, which is marginally used for photosynthesis. Due to the presence of Ageladine A, production of O2 increased 2.54 and 3.1-fold, in the experiments and the model, respectively.
