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

Disulphide bridges were introduced in different combinations into the N-terminal region and the single alpha-helix of mesophilic Trichoderma reesei xylanase II (TRX II). We used earlier disulphide-bridge data and designed new disulphide bridges for the combination mutants. The most stable mutant contained two disulphide bridges (between positions 2 and 28 and between positions 110 and 154, respectively) and the mutations N11D, N38E, and Q162H. With a half-life of approximately 56 h at 65 degrees C, the thermostability of this sevenfold mutant was approximately 5,000 times higher than that of TRX II, and the half-life was 25 min even at 75 degrees C. The thermostability of this mutant was approximately 30 times higher than that of the corresponding mutant missing the bridge between positions 2 and 28. The extensive stabilization at two protein regions did not alter the kinetic properties of the sevenfold mutant from that of the wild-type TRX II. The combination of disulphide bridges enhanced significantly the pH-dependent stability in a wide pH range.
