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

Measured at 2 degrees C in water, NMR chemical shifts of (13)C=O labeled central alanine residues of peptides W-Lys(5)-(t)L(3)-Ala(n)-(t)L(3)-Lys(5)NH(2), n = 9, 11, 13, 15, 19 and W-Lys(5)-(t)L(3)-a-Ala(n)-A-Inp-(t)L(2)-Lys(5)NH(2) (a = D-Ala; (t)L = tert-leucine; Inp = 4-carboxypiperidine) are used to assign jt(L) and ct(L), the N- and C-terminal (t)L capping parameters and length-dependent values for w(Ala)(n), the alanine helical propensity for Ala(n) peptides. These parameters allow Lifson-Roig characterization of the stabilities of Ala(n)() helices in water. To facilitate chemical shift characterization, different (13)C/(12)C ratios are incorporated into specific Ala sites to code up to six residue sites per peptide. Large left/right chemical shift anisotropies are intrinsic to helical polyalanines, and a correcting L-R-based model is introduced. Capping parameters jt(L) = ct(L) lie in the range of 0.3 to 0.5; the (t)L residues are thus moderately helix-destabilizing. For helical conformations of lengths shorter than eight residues, assigned values for w(Ala) approach 1.0 but increase monotonically with length to a value of 1.59 for w(Ala)(19).
