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 serum albumin is the most abundant protein in blood plasma and the iron is essential for many cellular processes. However, the interaction between Fe(3+) and haem-free serum albumin remains unclear. Here we provide evidence for the fact that haem-free BSA possesses one specific Fe(3+)-binding site. The binding of Fe(3+) to BSA results in a significant quenching of the Trp fluorescence of BSA. The average apparent dissociation constant value for the interaction of Fe(3+) and BSA is 3.46 x 10(-8)+/-3 x 10(-10) M at 37 degrees C and 3.30 x 10(-8)+/-5 x 10(-10) M at 25 degrees C, respectively, as determined by fluorescence titration. Addition of 50 microM Fe(2+) to 1 microM BSA results in an obvious hysteretic effect on the fluorescence of BSA. The time-dependent fluorescence quenching of BSA by Fe(2+) is not caused by the Fe(2+)-induced conformational change of BSA, but the oxygen-dependent oxidation of Fe(2+) to Fe(3+). Fe(2+) undergoes an oxygen-dependent oxidation to Fe(3+) under aerobic conditions, which is accelerated by the interaction of BSA with Fe(3+) and extensively inhibited under anaerobic conditions. The results suggest that BSA may take part in non-transferrin bound iron transfer.
