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 proapoptotic Bcl-2 family protein Bid is cleaved by caspase-8 to release the C-terminal fragment tBid, which translocates to the outer mitochondrial membrane and induces massive cytochrome c release and cell death. In this study, we have characterized the conformation of tBid in lipid membrane environments, using NMR and CD spectroscopy with lipid micelle and lipid bilayer samples. In micelles, tBid adopts a unique helical conformation, and the solution NMR (1)H/(15)N HSQC spectra have a single well resolved resonance for each of the protein amide sites. In lipid bilayers, tBid associates with the membrane with its helices parallel to the membrane surface and without trans-membrane helix insertion, and the solid-state NMR (1)H/(15)N polarization inversion with spin exchange at the magic angle spectrum has all of the amide resonances centered at (15)N chemical shift (70-90 ppm) and (1)H-(15)N dipolar coupling (0-5 kHz) frequencies associated with NH bonds parallel to the bilayer surface, with no intensity at frequencies associated with NH bonds in trans-membrane helices. Thus, the cytotoxic activity of tBid at mitochondria may be similar to that observed for antibiotic polypeptides, which bind to the surface of bacterial membranes as amphipathic helices and destabilize the bilayer structure, promoting the leakage of cell contents.
