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

Fully polymerization-competent fluorescein-labeled actin from skeletal muscle was microinjected into both normal moving and experimentally treated Amoeba proteus. Its intracellular distribution was followed by integral image intensification of the fluorescence on a television screen and compared with controls injected with rhodamine-labeled serum albumin. The labeled actin was incorporated into the endogenous actin pool and exhibited a characteristic redistribution depending on the cellular morphology. Increased amounts of labeled actin could be detected within a thin layer separating the hyalo- and granuloplasm or running immediately beneath the plasma membrane when hyaloplasmic regions were absent. The topography of the fluorescent layer demonstrated in living cells is in agreement with the cortical microfilament layer described ultrastructurally recently in corresponding cells. The combined results emphasize the important role of the cortical filament layer in both morphogenetic processes (e.g., hyalo-granuloplasm separation or changes in cell shape) and motive force generation for cytoplasmic streaming and amoeboid movement.
