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 chemistry underlying superoxide toxicity is not fully understood. A potential mechanism for superoxide-mediated injury involves addition to tyrosyl radicals, to give peptide or protein hydroperoxides. The rate constant for the reaction of tyrosyl radicals with superoxide is higher than for dimerization, but the efficiency of superoxide addition to peptides depends on the position of the Tyr residue. We have examined the requirements for superoxide addition and structurally characterized the products for a range of tyrosyl peptides exposed to a peroxidase/O(2)(.) system. These included enkephalins as examples of the numerous proteins and physiological peptides with N-terminal tyrosines. The importance of amino groups in promoting hydroperoxide formation and effect of methionine residues on the reaction were investigated. When tyrosine was N-terminal, the major products were hydroperoxides that had undergone cyclization through conjugate addition of the terminal amine. With non-N-terminal tyrosine, electron transfer from O(2)(.) to the peptide radical prevailed. Peptides containing methionine revealed a novel and efficient intramolecular oxygen transfer mechanism from an initial tyrosine hydroperoxide to give a dioxygenated derivative with one oxygen on the tyrosine and the other forming methionine sulfoxide. Exogenous amines promoted hydroperoxide formation on tyrosyl peptides lacking a terminal amine, without forming an adduct. These findings, plus the high hydroperoxide yields with N-terminal tyrosine, can be explained by a mechanism in which hydrogen bonding of O(2)(.) to the amine increases is oxidizing potential and alters its reactivity. If this amine effect occurred more generally, it could increase the biological reactivity of O(2)(.) and have major implications.
