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

Scyliorhinin I, a linear decapeptide, is the only known tachykinin that shows high affinity for both NK-1 and NK-2 binding sites and low affinity for NK-3 binding sites. As a first step to understand the structure-activity relationship, we report the membrane-induced structure of scyliorhinin I with the aid of circular dichroism and 2D-(1)H NMR spectroscopy. Sequence specific resonance assignments of protons have been made from correlation spectroscopy (TOCSY, DQF-COSY) and NOESY spectroscopy. The interproton distance constraints and dihedral angle constraints have been utilized to generate a family of structures using DYANA. The superimposition of 20 final structures has been reported with backbone pairwise root mean-square deviation of 0.38 +/- 0.19 A. The results show that scyliorhinin I exists in a random coil state in aqueous environments, whereas helical conformation is induced toward the C-terminal region of the peptide (D4-M10) in the presence of dodecyl phosphocholine micelles. Analysis of NMR data is suggestive of the presence of a 3(10)-helix that is in equilibrium with an alpha-helix in this region from residue 4 to 10. An extended highly flexible N-terminus of scyliorhinin I displays some degree of order and a possible turn structure. Observed conformational features have been compared with respect to that of substance P and neurokinin A, which are endogenous agonists of NK-1 and NK-2 receptors, respectively.
