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

Actinlike material was obtained from disrupted Pseudomonas aeruginosa cells by a modification of the method of Hancock and Nikaido (J. Bacteriol. 136:381-390) for isolating outer membrane vesicles. Pelleted membranes were dissolved in Laemmli sample buffer and electrophoresed in parallel lanes with purified rabbit skeletal muscle actin. The bacterial preparation migrated similarly to rabbit skeletal muscle actin. A doublet band was detectable by affinity-purified antiactin antibody in a passive transfer immunoblot. Molecular weight of the actinlike protein doublet was 60,000 to 63,000 as determined by linear regression analysis of Bio-Rad low-molecular-weight standards run on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Transmission electron microscopy of the actinlike material in high salt concentrations revealed 10- to 14-nm filaments of various lengths. Despite its ability to form filaments and to react with a polyclonal rabbit antiactin antibody, the bacterial filaments did not bind the S-1 fragment of heavy meromyosin.
