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

Fluorescence emission spectroscopy was used to investigate interactions between two effectors and BenM, a transcriptional regulator of benzoate catabolism. BenM had a higher affinity for cis,cis-muconate than for benzoate as the sole effector. However, the presence of benzoate increased the apparent dissociation constant (reduced the affinity) of the protein for cis,cis-muconate. Similar results were obtained with truncated BenM lacking the DNA-binding domain. High-level transcriptional activation may require that some monomers within a BenM tetramer bind benzoate and others bind cis,cis-muconate.
