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 self-association of two model transmembrane helical peptides, differing in their surface topography, was compared in mixed micelles containing 3-([3-cholamidopropyl]dimethylammonio)-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) and dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC). One peptide, Ac-KKL24KK-amide (L24), has large, rotationally mobile leucine side chains and a relatively rough surface. The other peptide, Ac-KKLLLLLLAALLALLAALLALLLLLLKK-amide (L18A6), has a patch of small alanines on one side of the helix that forms a smooth surface. The aggregation state of the peptides was sampled by chemical cross-linking with bis-sulfosuccinimidyl suberate (B53). A monomer-aggregate association constant was obtained from the cross-linking results in the range of 2 x 10(5) M(-1) to 3 x I0(5) M(-1) for both peptides. Kinetics of formation of cross-linked dimers indicated that the ratio of dimerization constants for L18A6 to L24 was between 10 and 20. This suggests that the alanine patch contributes about 1.5 Kcal/mol more stabilization free energy to dimer formation of L18A6 compared to L24.
