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

Late d-block first row transition metals from manganese to copper and zinc are present in all cells at high abundance and typically cofactor approximately one-third of the proteome. The integrity of this metalloproteome must be functionally resilient to changes in metal bioavailability induced by metal toxicity and metal scarcity, such that cellular processes dependent on these metalloenzymes are maintained. An emerging hypothesis is that the cellular response to zinc scarcity involves the expression of one or more GTP hydrolysis-dependent zinc metallochaperones, which are proposed to allocate zinc to specific downstream "clients". Here we critically evaluate the available evidence in support of this hypothesis with a focus on Cluster of Orthologous Groups 0523 (COG0523) superfamily of nucleotide-dependent metallochaperones. These enzymes are found in all kingdoms and yet the identification of biochemically validated client proteins continues to lag. Approaches to close this knowledge gap are discussed.
