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

AMP-deaminase (EC 3.5.4.6) is a key enzyme of nucleotide breakdown involved in regulation of adenine nucleotide pool in the liver. Mechanisms regulating activity of the enzyme are not completely elucidated, till now. In this paper experimental data indicating on the potential regulatory significance of changes in oligomeric structure of the enzyme are presented. SDS-PAG electrophoresis of human liver AMP-deaminase revealed the presence of three enzyme fragments. Only largest of them (the protein fragments weighing 68 kDa) reacted immunologically with anti- (human liver) AMP-deaminase antibodies. At physiological pH 7.0, in the absence of regulatory ligands, reaction catalysed by human liver AMP-deaminase was strongly dependent on enzyme concentration used, with half-saturation constant (S0.5) values increasing significantly with the degree of enzyme dilution. Preincubation with activated long-chain fatty acids--substances promoting dissociation of oligomeric enzymes, inhibited the activity of AMP-deaminase studied nearly completely. Gel filtration on Sepharose CL-6B column demonstrated existence of at least three active oligomeric forms of human liver AMP-deaminase. We postulate that oligomeric structure of the enzyme is a factor determining regulatory profile of AMP-deaminase studied.
