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.
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 calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is a mediator of calcium signals and regulates fatty acid metabolism in mammalian cells. Cmk2p is a yeast homolog of CaMKII and functions as a negative regulator of calcium signaling. However, its substrates remain to be identified. Combination of immunoprecipitation (IP) and mass spectrometry has been proven to be very useful for identification of interacting partner proteins and interactome. In this study, through these approaches, we have identified 65 and 110 potential Cmk2p-interacting proteins in yeast cells in the absence or presence of calcium stress, respectively. In yeast cells expressing both CMK2-HA and FAS1-GFP fusion proteins, in the absence or presence of calcium stress, less amounts of FAS1-GFP proteins are present in cell lysates after IP with anti-HA antibody than cell lysates before IP, while FAS1-GFP proteins are detected on both types of IP beads. However, as an internal control, similar amounts of Pgk1p proteins were detected in both after-IP and before-IP cell lysates but not on the IP beads. Therefore, our biochemical analysis demonstrates that the β subunit Fas1p of fatty acid synthetase interacts with Cmk2p in yeast cells independent of calcium stress. It is also interesting to note that, in addition to the expected 52-kDa CMK2-HA band, a faster-moving 48-kDa CMK2-HA band is present in the calcium-stressed cell lysate but not in the cell lysate without calcium stress. Our data would provide important clues for understanding the functions of CaMKII in the regulation of fatty acid metabolism as well as related diseases such as cancers, diabetes, and obesity.
