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

PEP is an intracellular protein tyrosine phosphatase expressed primarily by cells of hematopoietic origin that can be divided structurally into a catalytic domain and a large carboxy-terminal domain. The carboxy-terminal domain is enriched in proline, glutamic acid, serine, and threonine residues (PEST sequences) and contains a nonperfect tandem repeat sequence enriched in proline residues and a carboxy terminus enriched in basic amino acids. Here we show that PEP is diffusely expressed in lymphoid tissues, consistent with expression by many different cell types. Analysis of the PEP protein identifies a nuclear localization sequence within the extreme carboxy terminus. Transfer of 18 amino acids from the carboxy terminus of PEP to beta-galactosidase conferred nuclear localization, indicating that this sequence was sufficient for nuclear localization. Proteins enriched in PEST sequences are often rapidly degraded. However, pulse-chase analysis indicates that PEP has a half-life of greater than 5 h.
