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

backgroundThe Escherichia coli MutT (NudA) protein catalyzes the hydrolysis of an oxidized form of dGTP, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-dGTP (8-hydroxy-dGTP), and the spontaneous mutation frequency is elevated in E. coli cells deficient in the mutT gene.

resultsA split MutT, comprising the N-terminal (residues 1-95) and C-terminal (residues 96-129) peptides, was designed based on the known tertiary structure and linker insertion mutagenesis experiments. The mutator phenotype was complemented when the two peptides were separately expressed in mutT E. coli cells.

conclusionsThese results indicated that this split MutT functions as a nucleotide pool sanitization enzyme in vivo.
