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

Gene translocations from the organelles to the nucleus are postulated by the endosymbiont hypothesis. We here report evidence for sequence insertions in the nuclear genomes of plants that are derived from noncoding regions of the mitochondrial genome. Fragments of mitochondrial group II introns are identified in the nuclear genomes of tobacco and a bean species. The duplicated intron sequences of 75-140 bp are derived from cis- and trans-splicing introns of genes encoding subunits 1 and 5 of the NADH dehydrogenase. The mitochondrial sequences are inserted in the vicinities of a lectin gene, different glucanase genes and a gene encoding a subunit of photosystem II. Sequence similarities between the nuclear and mitochondrial copies are in the range of 80 to 97%, suggesting recent transfer events that occurred in the basic glucanase genes before and in the lectin gene after the gene duplications in the evolution of the nuclear gene families. Overlapping regions of the same introns are in two instances also involved in intramitochondrial sequence duplications.
