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

The biochemical properties and biological activities of the venom from three individual Ophiophagus hannah (King cobra) specimens was compared. The toxicity against mice, the cytotoxicity against five cell lines, and the antioxidant activity were measured. The KV2 venom showed a higher cytotoxicity than the KV6 and the non-cytotoxic KV9 venoms. Comparative analysis of the O. hannah venom proteins was performed after 2-dimensional (2-D) denaturing gel electrophoresis and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC). 2-D analysis by isoelectric focusing (IEF) Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) resolution of the venoms revealed significant differences between all three venoms, with most spots being unique to that venom. Only 2 out of the 13-16 distinct spots were common to all three venoms, and four spots were common to KV6 and KV9. KV2 had the highest proportion of low molecular mass spots, and KV6 and KV9 appeared more related to each other than to KV9. From peptide mass mapping by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and MASCOT-based amino acid sequence database searching, the two venom proteins that were common to all three specimens are likely to be ophanin and acidic phospholipase A
