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

Glycosomes, belonging to the sub-class of peroxisomes, are single-membrane-bound organelles of trypanosomatid parasites. Glycosomes compartmentalize mainly glycolytic and other essential metabolic pathways such as gluconeogenesis, pentose phosphate pathway, sugar nucleotide biosynthesis, etc. Since glycosomes are parasite-specific and their biogenesis is essential for the parasite survival, they have attracted a lot of interest over the years. Understanding the glycosomal enzyme composition and machinery involved in the biogenesis of this organelle requires the knowledge of the glycosomal proteome. Here we describe a method to isolate highly purified glycosomes and further enrichment of the glycosomal membrane proteins from the pro-cyclic form of Trypanosoma brucei. The isolation method is based on the controlled rupture of the cells by silicon carbide, followed by the differential centrifugation, and density gradient centrifugation. Further, the glycosomal membrane proteins are enriched from the purified glycosomes by the successive treatments with low-salt, high-salt, and alkaline carbonate buffer extractions.
