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

We have examined the folding and unfolding of the caspase recruitment domain of procaspase-1 (CP1-CARD), a member of the alpha-helical Greek key protein family. The equilibrium folding/unfolding of CP1-CARD is described by a two-state mechanism, and the results show CP1-CARD is marginally stable with a DeltaG(H2O) of 1.1 +/- 0.2 kcal/mole and an m-value of 0.65 +/- 0.06 kcal/mole/M (10 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0, 1 mM DTT, 25 degrees C). Consistent with the equilibrium folding data, CP1-CARD is a monomer in solution when examined by size exclusion chromatography. Single-mixing stopped-flow refolding and unfolding studies show that CP1-CARD folds and unfolds rapidly, with no detectable slow phases, and the reactions appear to reach equilibrium within 10 msec. However, double jump kinetic experiments demonstrate the presence of an unfolded-like intermediate during unfolding. The intermediate converts to the fully unfolded conformation with a half-time of 10 sec. Interrupted refolding studies demonstrate the presence of one or more nativelike intermediates during refolding, which convert to the native conformation with a half-time of about 60 sec. Overall, the data show that both unfolding and refolding processes are slow, and the pathways contain kinetically trapped species.
