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

The bundle of filaments within the intestinal microvillus contains four major polypeptides in addition to actin calmodulin, a 70-kdalton subunit and two polypeptides with molecular masses similar to that of the Z-line component alpha-actinin (95 and 105 kdaltons). Two-dimensional mapping of tryptic peptides indicates that (a) alpha-actinins from chicken skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle are similar but not identical proteins and that skeletal alpha-actinin in more similar to the cardiac subunit than to the alpha-actinin from gizzard; (b) the brush-border 95- and 105-kdalton subunits are closely related to each other, but the smaller subunit is not a proteolytic fragment of the 105-kdalton subunit; and (c) although there is considerable peptide overlap between the brush-border subunits and the three alpha-actinins, the peptide maps of the 95- and 105-kdalton proteins are substantially distinct from the various alpha-actinin maps, suggesting that neither brush-border subunit is a bona fide alpha-actinin. Nevertheless, on the basis of peptide mapping criteria alone, one cannot exclude the possibility that the brush-border subunits are "alpha-actinin-like." However, there is no immunological cross-reactivity between the brush-border subunits and alpha-actinins, using antibodies prepared against gizzard alpha actinin.
