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

A major result of incoherent elastic neutron-scattering experiments on protein powders is the strong dependence of the intramolecular dynamics on the sample environment. We performed a series of incoherent elastic neutron-scattering experiments on lyophilized human butyrylcholinesterase (HuBChE) powders under different conditions (solvent composition and hydration degree) in the temperature range from 20 to 285 K to elucidate the effect of the environment on the enzyme atomic mean-square displacements. Comparing D(2)O- with H(2)O-hydrated samples, we were able to investigate protein as well as hydration water molecular dynamics. HuBChE lyophilized from three distinct buffers showed completely different atomic mean-square displacements at temperatures above approximately 200 K: a salt-free sample and a sample containing Tris-HCl showed identical small-amplitude motions. A third sample, containing sodium phosphate, displayed highly reduced mean-square displacements at ambient temperature with respect to the other two samples. Below 200 K, all samples displayed similar mean-square displacements. We draw the conclusion that the reduction of intramolecular protein mean-square displacements on an Angstrom-nanosecond scale by the solvent depends not only on the presence of salt ions but also on their type.
