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

Selenium-binding proteins represent a ubiquitous protein family and recently SBP1 was described as a new stress response regulator in plants. SBP1 has been characterized as a methanethiol oxidase, however its exact role remains unclear. Moreover, in mammals, it is involved in the regulation of anti-carcinogenic growth and progression as well as reduction/oxidation modulation and detoxification. In this work, we delineate the functional potential of certain motifs of SBP in the context of evolutionary relationships. The phylogenetic profiling approach revealed the absence of SBP in the fungi phylum as well as in most non eukaryotic organisms. The phylogenetic tree also indicates the differentiation and evolution of characteristic SBP motifs. Main evolutionary events concern the CSSC motif for which Acidobacteria, Fungi and Archaea carry modifications. Moreover, the CC motif is harbored by some bacteria and remains conserved in Plants, while modified to CxxC in Animals. Thus, the characteristic sequence motifs of SBPs mainly appeared in Archaea and Bacteria and retained in Animals and Plants. Our results demonstrate the emergence of SBP from bacteria and most likely as a methanethiol oxidase.
