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

Myosin subfragment-1 (S1) can be cross-linked to two actin monomers by 1-ethyl-3-[3-(dimethylamino)-propyl]-carbodiimide only when F-actin is in excess over S1. Electron micrographs of the covalent actin2-S1 complex showed that S1 was cross-linked to two adjacent monomers of the same actin filament. Cross-linking experiments with pre-proteolyzed S1 derivatives in combination with a proteolytic dissection of the intact covalent actin2-S1 adduct (m = 265 kDa), revealed that two N-terminal segments of actin (residues 1-28) were covalently attached to a single S1 molecule. One was cross-linked to either the 20-kDa or the 50-kDa heavy chain fragments of S1, and the other only to the 50-kDa region. The doubly cross-linked product was formed under physiological ionic strength with S1 or with reconstituted myosin filaments, regardless of the presence of ADP or the regulatory proteins, tropomyosin and troponin. Finally, we found that this cross-linking could also take place within myofibrils in the rigor state. These results demonstrate that under nonsaturating conditions, the actin-S1 interface encompasses a much larger region than that recently proposed for the nonphysiological, fully saturated actin filaments.
