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

Colletotrichum trifolii is a fungal pathogen which is responsible for anthracnose disease of alfalfa. To initiate research on molecular communication in this fungus, a kinase-encoding gene (TB3) and the corresponding cDNA were cloned and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence of TB3 closely resembles that of a Neurospora crassa serine/threonine protein kinase, COT1, required for hyphal elongation and branching. The C-terminal catalytic domains of TB3 and COT1 are highly conserved but the N-terminal regions are divergent, particularly in the homopolymeric glutamine repeats of TB3. Northern analysis indicated that TB3 expression was highest 1 h after inducing conidial germination and 1 h before germ tubes were first observed. Expression of TB3 transcripts returned to constitutive levels by 4 h after induction of germination. TB3 complemented the cot-I mutant of Neurospora crassa, demonstrating the functional conservation of this kinase between a pathogenic and a saprophytic fungus.
