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

This paper describes the primary structure of two visual pigment opsins (DfRh1 and DfRh2) in the regionalized compound eye of a dragonfly, Sympetrum frequens. The amino acid sequences were deduced from the nucleotide sequences of cDNAs isolated from a cDNA library of the dragonfly retina. The two opsins both consist of 379 amino acids with 81.3% identity. Analysis of hydropathy indicated that the sequences have seven transmembrane domains like those of previously described opsins. Expression analysis using RT-PCR revealed that DfRh1 was present only in the dorsal region whereas DfRh2 was detected in both the dorsal and the ventral regions of the eye.
