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

The relative stabilities and structural properties of a representative set of 20 ALS-mutant Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase apoproteins were examined by using differential scanning calorimetry and hydrogen-deuterium (H/D) exchange followed by MS. Contrary to recent reports from other laboratories, we found that ALS-mutant apoproteins are not universally destabilized by the disease-causing mutations. For example, several of the apoproteins with substitutions at or near the metal binding region (MBR) (MBR mutants) exhibited melting temperatures (Tm) in the range 51.6 degrees C to 56.2 degrees C, i.e., similar to or higher than that of the WT apoprotein (Tm = 52.5 degrees C). The apoproteins with substitutions remote from the MBR (WT-like mutants) showed a wide range of Tms, 40.0 degrees C to 52.4 degrees C. The H/D exchange properties of the mutants were also wide-ranging: the MBR mutant apoproteins exhibited H/D exchange kinetics similar to the WT apoprotein, as did some of the more stable WT-like mutant apoproteins, whereas the less stable apoproteins exhibited significantly less protection from H/D exchange than the WT apoprotein. Most striking were the three mutant apoproteins, D101N, E100K, and N139K, which have apparently normal metallation properties, and differ little from the WT apoprotein in either thermal stability or H/D exchange kinetics. Thus, the ALS mutant Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase apoproteins do not all share reduced global stability, and additional properties must be identified and understood to explain the toxicity of all of the mutant proteins.
