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

It has been claimed that beta2-microglobulin (beta2-m) interacts with type I and type II collagen, and this property has been linked to the tissue specificity of the beta2-m amyloid deposits that target the osteo-articular system. The binding parameters of the interaction between collagen and beta2-m were determined by band shift electrophoresis and surface plasma resonance by using bovine collagen of type I and type II and various isoforms of beta2-m. Wild-type beta2-m binds collagen type I with a Kd of 4.1 x 10(-4) M and type II with 2.3 x 10(-3) M. By the BIAcore system we monitored the binding properties of the conformers of the slow phase of folding of beta2-m. The folding intermediates during the slow phase of folding do not display any significant difference with respect to the binding properties of the fully folded molecule. The affinity of beta2-m truncated at the third N-terminal residue does not differ from that reported for the wild-type protein. Increased affinity for collagen type I is found in the case of N-terminal truncated species lacking of six residues. The Kd of this species is 3.4 x 10 (-5) M at pH 7.4 and its affinity increases to 4.9 x 10(-6) M at pH 6.4. Fluctuations of the affinity caused by beta2-m truncation and pH change can cause modifications of protein concentration in the solvent that surrounds the collagen, and could contribute to generate locally a critical protein concentration able to prime the protein aggregation.
