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 nature and the sites of interactions between anesthetic halothane and homodimeric Delta5-3-ketosteroid isomerase (KSI) are characterized by flexible ligand docking and confirmed by 1H-15N NMR. The dynamics consequence of halothane interaction and the implication of the dynamic changes to KSI function are studied by multiple 5-ns molecular dynamics simulations in the presence and absence of halothane. Both docking and MD simulations show that halothane prefer the amphiphilic dimeric interface to the hydrophobic active site of KSI. Halothane occupancy at the dimer interface disrupted the intersubunit hydrogen bonding formed either directly through side chains of polar residues or indirectly through the mediation of the interfacial water molecules. Moreover, in the presence of halothane, the exchange rate of the bound waters with bulk water was increased. Halothane perturbation to the dimer interface affected the overall flexibility of the active site. This action is likely to contribute to the halothane-induced reduction of the KSI activity. The allosteric halothane modulation of the dynamics-function relationship of KSI without direct competition at the enzymatic active sites may be generalized to offer a unifying explanation of anesthetic action on a diverse range of multidomain neuronal proteins that are potentially relevant to clinical general anesthesia.
