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

An actin filament capping protein has been purified from bovine brain. The protein has a native mol. wt. of 63 kilodaltons (kd) with subunits of 36 kd and 31 kd and is globular in shape. It nucleates actin polymerization, inhibits filament elongation and filament interactions, and decreases the steady state viscosity of F-actin in substoichiometric amounts (molar ration 1:1000). In addition, the protein increases the critical concentration for actin polymerization. Neither Ca2+ nor calmodulin affects it action. All these effects can be explained by the binding of the protein to the 'barbed' end of actin filaments leading to a blockade of actin monomer addition at the preferred growing end. This is directly demonstrated by electron microscopy. Concerning the polypeptide composition, Ca2+-independence, mode, and stoichiometry of actin interaction, the protein is similar to the capping protein, previously isolated from Acanthamoeba.
