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

Iron plays vital roles in important biological processes in fish, but can be toxic in high concentrations. The information on metalloproteins that participate in maintenance of Fe homeostasis in an esocid fish, the northern pike, as an important freshwater bioindicator species, are rather scarce. The aim of this study was to identify main cytosolic constituents that sequester Fe in the northern pike liver. The method applied consisted of two-dimensional HPLC separation of Fe-binding biomolecules, based on anion-exchange followed by size-exclusion fractionation. Apparent molecular masses of two main Fe-metalloproteins isolated by this procedure were ~360 kDa and ~50 kDa, with the former having more acidic pI, and indicated presence of ferritin and hemoglobin, respectively. MALDI-TOF-MS provided confirmation of ferritin subunit with a m/z peak at 20.65 kDa, and hemoglobin with spectra containing main m/z peak at 16.1 kDa, and smaller peaks at 32.1, 48.2, and 7.95 kDa (single-charged Hb-monomer, dimer, and trimer, and double-charged monomer, respectively). LC-MS/MS with subsequent MASCOT database search confirmed the presence of Hb-β subunits and pointed to close relation between esocid and salmonid fishes. Further efforts should be directed towards optimization of the conditions for metalloprotein analysis by mass spectrometry, to extend the knowledge on intracellular metal-handling mechanisms.
