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

Mammalian heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes heme degradation using reducing equivalents supplied by NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR). The tertiary structure of the catalytic domain of a constitutively expressed isoform of HO, HO-2, resembles that of the inductive isoform, HO-1, whereas HO-2 has two heme regulatory motifs (HRM) at the proximal portion of the C-terminus, where the disulfide linkage reflects cellular redox conditions and the second heme binding site is located. Here, we report the results of crosslinking experiments, which suggest that HRM is located near the FMN-binding domain of the CPR when it is complexed with HO-2. The enzymatic assay and reduction kinetics results suggest that heme-bound HRM negatively regulates HO-2 activity in vitro. Cellular redox conditions and free heme concentrations may regulate HO-2 activity.
