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

Among all known repair enzymes, methionine sulfoxide reductase A (MsrA) plays a key role in protecting against oxidative stress and its damaging effects. The enzyme is ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotic cells and different splice variants of the MsrA gene have been shown to permit the specific prevalence of the protein in different cell organelles. Here, we present novel insights in the intracellular localization of MsrA in selected samples from mouse and human tissue. Using immunocytochemical techniques at both the light and electron microscopic levels, we show incidence of MsrA in human oral mucosa cells, predominantly in the cell nucleus. In addition, the enzyme has been localized in mitochondria of mouse liver and kidney cells, in the cytoplasm of retina cells, and in the endoplasmic reticulum of glandular cells. Overall, the results indicate a correlation between the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression level of MsrA in subcellular compartments of the tissues examined.
