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 investigated whether there is evidence for the presence of different types of phosphate translocators in envelopes purified from pepper-fruit chromoplasts. A method was developed that allowed the purification of envelope membranes from isolated pepper-fruit chromoplasts. Proteoliposomes containing envelope-membrane proteins are able to import inorganic phosphate (P1) or glucose 6-phosphate (Glc6P). In both cases, the rate of import is strongly dependent upon preloading of proteoliposomes with either P1, dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) or Glc6P. This demonstrates the presence of a phosphate translocator activity catalysing a counter exchange of phosphorylated intermediates. Interestingly, a high external concentration of Glc6P does not strongly inhibit P1 uptake into proteoliposomes preloaded with DHAP, whereas external Glc6P strongly inhibits P1 uptake into proteoliposomes preloaded with Glc6P. This observation strongly indicates that two types of phosphate translocator are present in chromoplast envelopes from red-pepper fruits. These data are discussed with respect to the possible physiological function of two types of phosphate translocator in one type of plastid.
