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

The archiascomycetous fungus Protomyces pachydermus has two group I introns within the nuclear small subunit (nSSU) rRNA gene. One of these introns has an internal open reading frame (ORF) that encodes a predicted protein of 228 amino acid residues. On the other hand, Protomyces macrosporus has two group I introns that insert at the same positions as P. pachydermus, which have no ORF. Each alignment was constructed with Protomyces group I introns located in the same position and other introns retrieved by the BLAST Search. Each phylogenetic tree based on the alignment shows that Protomyces introns are monophyletic but the relationships among fungal introns do not reflect on the fungal phylogeny. Therefore, it is suggested that two different horizontal transfers of group I introns occurred at the early stage of Protomyces species diversification.
