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 Nm23-H1/nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinase A is a metastasis suppressor, besides its enzymatic activity. The mutant S120G has been found in high-grade neuroblastomas. The mutant protein, once denatured in urea, is unable to refold in vitro. A size-exclusion chromatography analysis of the folding/association pathway showed that recombinant wild-type and S120G mutant human Nm23-H1/NDP kinase A unfold and refold passing through a molten globule state while typical hexameric NDP kinases unfold without dissociated species and refold through a native monomeric intermediate. A survey of the recent literature showed that several proteins involved in cancer, and their mutants, are marginally stable, like the wild-type Nm23-H1/NDP kinase A, or are misfolded, like its S120G mutant. We therefore suggest that the low thermodynamic stability and the folding intermediate of the Nm23-H1/NDP kinase A may be necessary for its regulatory properties.
