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 structure of LIM domains has major implications for transcription because proteins such as Is1-1 contain two LIM domains associated with a homeodomain, and RBTN1/Ttg-1 and RBTN2/Ttg-2 contain two LIM domains but no homeodomain. Conserved cysteine and histidine residues in the LIM domains suggest a metal-binding role. RBTN and Is1-1 LIM proteins have been made in Escherichia coli and insect cell expression systems and their metal content has been determined using atomic absorption spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. LIM proteins expressed in soluble form contain zinc atoms, whereas bacterial inclusion bodies invariably also have Fe-S clusters. The latter are identified as linear [Fe3S4]+ clusters and appear to result from incorrect metal coordination by E. coli. These studies show that RBTN1, RBTN2, and Is1-1 are metalloproteins that contain zinc but not iron and, therefore, that the LIM domain represents a zinc-binding domain.
