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

Two molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out on the HIV-1 integrase catalytic core starting from fully determined crystal structures. During the first one, performed in the absence of divalent cation (6-ns long), the catalytic core took on two main conformations. The conformational transition occurs at approximately 3.4 ns. In contrast, during the second one, in the presence of Mg(2+) (4-ns long), there were no such changes. The molecular dynamics simulations were used to compute the fluorescence intensity decays emitted by the four tryptophan residues considered as the only chromophores. The decay was computed by following, frame by frame, the amount of chromophores that remained excited at a certain time after light absorption. The simulation took into account the quenching through electron transfer to the peptide bond and the fluorescence resonance energy transfer between the chromophores. The fit to the experimental intensity decays obtained at 5 degrees C and at 30 degrees C is very good. The fluorescence anisotropy decays were also simulated. Interestingly, the fit to the experimental anisotropy decay was excellent at 5 degrees C and rather poor at 30 degrees C. Various hypotheses such as dimerization and abnormal increase of uncorrelated internal motions are discussed.
