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

Glycoside hydrolases form hyperthermophilic archaea are interesting model systems for the study of catalysis at high temperatures and, at the moment, their detailed enzymological characterization is the only approach to define their role in vivo. Family 29 of glycoside hydrolases classification groups alpha-L-fucosidases involved in a variety of biological events in Bacteria and Eukarya. In Archaea the first alpha-L-fucosidase was identified in Sulfolobus solfataricus as interrupted gene expressed by programmed -1 frameshifting. In this review, we describe the identification of the catalytic residues of the archaeal enzyme, by means of the chemical rescue strategy. The intrinsic stability of the hyperthermophilic enzyme allowed the use of this method, which resulted of general applicability for beta and alpha glycoside hydrolases. In addition, the presence in the active site of the archaeal enzyme of a triad of catalytic residues is a rather uncommon feature among the glycoside hydrolases and suggested that in family 29 slightly different catalytic machineries coexist.
