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

An oligodeoxynucleotide containing 27 nucleotides, complementary to a highly conserved sequence of beta-tubulin mRNAs, led to a nearly complete inhibition of beta-tubulin synthesis in Xenopus oocytes after microinjection. Inhibition persisted 24 hours post-injection and was specific for beta-tubulin as the synthesis of alpha-tubulin as well as that of other proteins from the oocyte was not affected. Complete inhibition of beta-tubulin synthesis did not prevent progesterone-induced meiotic maturation and formation of the chromosome spindle. This result indicates that the pool of endogenous tubulin already present in fully-grown oocytes is sufficient to allow normal meiotic maturation. This finding correlates with previous experiments showing that the turn-over of tubulin is very slow in the oocyte.
