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

This study investigated the protein content of Acacia and Ziziphus honey samples from the southwestern region of Saudi Arabia following the shotgun gel-free proteomics. Honey proteins were extracted, digested by trypsin and the trypsin digests were separated and characterized using the LC-ESI-QTOF-MS (SCIEX X500R QTOF). The precursor masses of the trypsin digests were used to identify the proteins through searching the mascot spectral database search engine. Nine protein classes originated from honeybees were identified as follows: 1) Gene expression regulatory proteins, 2) Enzymes, 3) Bee venom proteins, 4) Major Royal Jelly Proteins (MRJP), 5) Immune proteins, 6) Structural proteins, 7) Neuropeptides, 8) Vision protein and 9) Olfactory proteins. This study reported, for the first time, the presence of sixteen honeybee proteins in Acacia and Ziziphus honey samples from the southwestern region of Saudi Arabia. Moreover, this study reported that the honey proteomics can predict the honeybee origin of honey samples.
