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

Photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization NMR pulse-labeling techniques have been used to obtain detailed information about side-chain surface accessibilities in the partially folded (molten globule) states of bovine and human alpha-lactalbumin prepared under a variety of well defined conditions. Pulse labeling involves generating nuclear polarization in the partially folded state, rapidly refolding the protein within the NMR sample tube, then detecting the polarization in the well dispersed native-state spectrum. Differences in the solvent accessibility of specific side chains in the various molten globule states indicate that the hydrophobic clusters involved in stabilizing the alpha-lactalbumin fold can be formed from interactions between a variety of different hydrophobic residues in both native and non-native environments. The multiple subsets of hydrophobic clusters are likely to result from the existence of distinct but closely related local minima on the free-energy landscape of the protein and show that the fold and topology of a given protein may be formed from degenerate groups of side chains.
