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

Unfolding and aggregation are basic problems in protein science with serious biotechnological and medical implications. Probing the sequential events occurring during the unfolding and aggregation process and the relationship between unfolding and aggregation is of particular interest. In this study, two-dimensional infrared (2D IR) correlation spectroscopy was used to study the sequential events and starting temperature dependence of Myoglobin (Mb) thermal transitions. Though a two-state model could be obtained from traditional 1D IR spectra, subtle noncooperative conformational changes were observed at low temperatures. Formation of aggregation was observed at a temperature (50-58 degrees C) that protein was dominated by native structures and accompanied with unfolding of native helical structures when a traditional thermal denaturation condition was used. The time course NMR study of Mb incubated at 55 degrees C for 45 h confirmed that an irreversible aggregation process existed. Aggregation was also observed before fully unfolding of the Mb native structure when a relative high starting temperature was used. These findings demonstrated that 2D IR correlation spectroscopy is a powerful tool to study protein aggregation and the protein aggregation process observed depends on the different environmental conditions used.
