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 used PCR to identify a Dictyostelium homolog of the bacterial two-component system. The gene dokA codes for a member of the hybrid histidine kinase family which is defined by the presence of conserved amino acid sequence motifs corresponding to an N-terminal receptor domain, a central kinase and a C-terminal response regulator moiety. Potential function of the regulator domain was demonstrated by phosphorylation in vitro. dokA mutants are deficient in the osmoregulatory pathway, resulting in premature cell death under high osmotic stress. Under less stringent osmotic conditions, cells grow at a normal rate, but development at the multicellular stage is altered. dokA is a member of a family of histidine kinase-like genes that play regulatory roles in eukaryotic cell function.
