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

We have purified a Ca2+ dependent ribonuclease from the oocytes of Xenopus leavis. Two properties of this ribonuclease set it apart from other known nucleases. First, Ca2+ was required for ribonuclease activity, and Mg2+ would not substitute. Second, the enzyme specifically degraded RNA and digestion of double or single stranded DNA was not observed. Ca2+ dependent ribonuclease activity of the purified 36-kDa protein was directly observed after renaturation of the protein following electrophoresis in an SDS-Laemmli gel. In addition, the enzyme was shown to have endoribonuclease activity at numerous sites. The Ca2+ dependence suggests that the ribonuclease activity may be modulated by changes in the level of intracellular Ca2+ and thereby provide a direct link to signal transduction systems.
