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

Thiolases are important enzymes involved in lipid metabolism in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and are essential for a range of metabolic pathways, while, little is known for this important family in insects. To shed light on the evolutionary models and functional diversities of the thiolase family, 137 thiolase genes were identified in 20 representative insect genomes. They were mainly classified into five classes, namely cytosolic thiolase (CT-thiolase), T1-thiolase, T2-thiolase, trifunctional enzyme thiolase (TFE-thiolase), and sterol carrier protein 2 thiolase (SCP2-thiolase). The intron number and exon/intron structures of the thiolase genes reserve large diversification. Subcellular localization prediction indicated that all the thiolase proteins were mitochondrial, cytosolic, or peroxisomal enzymes. Four highly conserved sequence fingerprints were found in the insect thiolase proteins, including CxS-, NEAF-, GHP-, and CxGGGxG-motifs. Homology modeling indicated that insect thiolases share similar 3D structures with mammals, fishes, and microorganisms. In
