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 PSI-D subunit is the ferredoxin-binding site of photosystem I, and is encoded by the nuclear gene psaD. We isolated a psaD genomic clone from Nicotiana sylvestris, by screening a genomic library with a psaD cDNA which we previously cloned from N. sylvestris (Yamamoto et al., Plant Mol Biol 17: 1251, 1991). Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed that this genomic clone contains a psaD gene, which does not correspond to the psaD cDNA, so we designated these genes psaDb and psaDa, respectively. The psaDb clone encodes a protein of 214 amino acids uninterrupted by introns. The N-terminal sequence determined for the N. sylvestris PSI-D protein encoded by psaDb begins at the 49th residue. The products of psaDa and psaDb share 82.7% and 79.5% identity at the amino acid and nucleotide levels, respectively. Genomic Southern analysis showed that two copies of psaD are present in the N. sylvestris genome. Ribonuclease protection assays and immunoblot analysis in N. sylvestris indicate that both genes are expressed in leaves, stems and flower buds, but neither is expressed in roots. During leaf development, the ratio of psaDb to psaDa mRNA increases from 0.12 in leaf buds to 0.36 in mature leaves. The relative abundance of the corresponding proteins decreased over the same developmental period. These results indicate that differential regulation mechanisms control psaDa and psaDb expression at both the mRNA and protein levels during leaf development.
