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

A system for the production of soluble porcine pepsinogen A (EC 3.4.23.1) was developed by fusing the pepsinogen and thioredoxin genes and then expressing the fused product (Trx-PG) in Escherichia coli. The expressed fusion protein was purified using a combination of ion-exchange and hydrophobic chromatography. Trypsin digestion of the fusion protein yielded pepsinogen which was one residue longer than the intrinsic length. Acidification of either the fusion protein or pepsinogen (tryptic digestion of Trx-PG) yielded recombinant pepsin A (r-pepsin). When compared with commercial porcine pepsin A, r-pepsin had similar milk-clotting and proteolytic activities, kinetic parameters and pH dependency. The above results indicate that an expression system was developed which yielded fully active soluble pepsin(ogen) from Escherichia coli.
