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

cDNAs and an intronless single-copy nuclear gene (TPI1) encoding triosephosphate isomerase have been cloned and sequenced from the marine red alga Gracilaria verrucosa. The predicted amino-acid sequence of TPI1 is readily alignable with those of other known TPIs; 26 of 27 active-site residues and 19 of 26 intersubunit-contact residues are identical between TPIs of G. verrucosa and/or animals and green plants. A partial cDNA sequence of a second TPI gene (TPI2), presumably encoding plastid-localized TPI, was recovered by PCR and demonstrated by phylogenetic analysis to be red algal; no TP12 cDNA or genomic clones could be recovered. Genomic Southern analysis demonstrated that at least two TPI-like genes are present in the nuclear DNA of G. verrucosa.
