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

alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidases I and II were purified from the culture filtrate of Aspergillus awamori IFO 4033 and had molecular weights of 81,000 and 62,000 and pIs of 3.3 and 3.6, respectively. Both enzymes had an optimum pH of 4.0 and an optimum temperature of 60 degreesC and exhibited stability at pH values from 3 to 7 and at temperatures up to 60 degrees C. The enzymes released arabinose from p-nitrophenyl-alpha-L-arabinofuranoside, O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1-->3)-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-x ylopyranose, and arabinose-containing polysaccharides but not from O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->2)-O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl-(1-->3)-O-b eta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->4)-O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-xylopyra nose. alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase I also released arabinose from O-beta-D-xylopy-ranosyl-(1-->4)-[O-alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl- (1-->3)]- O-beta-D-xylopyranosyl-(1-->4)-D-xylopyranose. However, alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase II did not readily catalyze this hydrolysis reaction. alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase I hydrolyzed all linkages that can occur between two alpha-L-arabinofuranosyl residues in the following order: (1-->5) linkage > (1-->3) linkage > (1-->2) linkage. alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase II hydrolyzed the linkages in the following order: (1-->5) linkage > (1-->2) linkage > (1-->3) linkage. alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase I preferentially hydrolyzed the (1-->5) linkage of branched arabinotrisaccharide. On the other hand, alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase II preferentially hydrolyzed the (1-->3) linkage in the same substrate. alpha-L-Arabinofuranosidase I released arabinose from the nonreducing terminus of arabinan, whereas alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase II preferentially hydrolyzed the arabinosyl side chain linkage of arabinan.
