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

Signal transduction in the archaeon Halobacterium salinarum is mediated by three distinct subfamilies of transducer proteins. Here we report the complete htrVIII gene sequence and present analysis of the encoded primary structure and its functional features. HtrVIII is a 642-amino-acid protein and belongs to halobacterial transducer subfamily B. At the N terminus, the protein contains six transmembrane segments that exhibit homology to the heme-binding sites of the eukaryotic cytochrome c oxidase. The C-terminal domain has high homology with the eubacterial methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein. The HtrVIII protein mediates aerotaxis: a strain with a deletion of the htrVIII gene loses aerotaxis, while an overproducing strain exhibits stronger aerotaxis. We also demonstrate that HtrVIII is a methyl-accepting protein and demethylates during the aerotaxis response.
