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 dynamic behavior of HIV-1 TAR and its complex with argininamide is investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulations starting from NMR structures, with explicit inclusion of water and periodic boundary conditions particle mesh Ewald representation of the electrostatic energy. During simulations of free and argininamide-bound TAR, local structural patterns, as determined by NMR experiments, were reproduced. An interdomain motion was observed in the simulations of free TAR, which is absent in the case of bound TAR, leading to the conclusion that the free conformation of TAR is intrinsically more flexible than the bound conformation. In particular, in the bound conformation the TAR-argininamide interface is very well ordered, as a result of the formation of a U.A.U base triple, which imposes structural constraints on the global conformation of the molecule. Free energy analysis, which includes solvation contributions, was used to evaluate the influence of van der Waals and electrostatic terms on formation of the complex and on the conformational rearrangement from free to bound TAR.
