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

Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme is a protein that participates in the regulation of cellular polyamine levels. In this study we have isolated and sequenced the mouse gene encoding antizyme protein. Transfection of various cell lines with a 5.5 kb genomic fragment containing the antizyme locus resulted in the production of a 29 kDa antizyme protein, confirming that this locus contained a functional gene. Comparison of the mouse gene with the corresponding rat gene [Miyazaki, Matsufuji and Hayashi, (1992) Gene 113, 191-197] revealed an identical exon/intron organization and high level of nucleotide sequence conservation that was 89% for the entire transcription unit. Protein-coding regions of the two genes exhibited 97% nucleotide sequence identity and there were only four amino acid differences between the 227-residue antizyme protein sequences of the mouse and rat. The promoter of the antizyme gene was functional in mouse (N2A and NIH/3T3) and hamster (CHO) cell lines. The presence of 0.1 mM spermidine in culture medium increased the amount of immunoreactive antizyme protein in cells transfected with the antizyme gene or antizyme cDNA, possibly owing to facilitated frameshifting in the translation of antizyme mRNA. Recombinant antizyme protein was also produced in Escherichia coli and used to raise specific polyclonal antibodies in rabbits and to devise immunological methods for the measurement of antizyme concentration.
