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

Porcine brain myosin is a cytoplasmic protein similar to, but distinct from, its muscle counterpart. It has a high K+-ATPase activity at high ionic strength in EDTA and a low Mg+2-ATPase activity that is activated fivefold by either porcine brain or rabbit skeletal muscle actin. The molecule consists of three classes of subunits, with molecular weights of approximately 195,000 , 19,000, and 16,000. Brain myosin contains less glutamic acid, less lysine, and more threonine, serine, proline, and tyrosine than skeletal muscle myosin. The brain myosin extinction coefficient at 278 nm is 0.810 cm2/mg. Hydrodynamic studies yield an S020,w of 4.95S, a D020,w of 1.07 x 10(-7) cm2/s for brain myosin, and indicate that the molecules aggregate at high ionic strength. The molecular weight of the molecule, as calculated from extrapolation of D020,w/S20,w to zero concentration, is 444,000. The intrinsic viscosity of brain myosin is 0.191 ml/mg. These data are consistent with a highly asymmetric molecular species. Circular dichroism spectroscopy indicates that brain myosin is 58-60% alpha-helical in the presence of Ca+2 ions, and that removal of Ca+2 causes a small change in the spectrum.
