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

Refolding of a thermally unfolded disulfide-deficient mutant of the starch-binding domain of glucoamylase was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry, isothermal titration calorimetry, CD, and (1)H NMR. When the protein solution was rapidly cooled from a higher temperature, a kinetic intermediate was formed during refolding. The intermediate was unexpectedly stable compared with typical folding intermediates that have short half-lives. It was shown that this intermediate contained substantial secondary structure and tertiary packing and had the same binding ability with beta-cyclodextrin as the native state, suggesting that the intermediate is highly-ordered and native-like on the whole. These characteristics differ from those of partially folded intermediates such as molten globule states. Far-UV CD spectra showed that the secondary structure was once disrupted during the transition from the intermediate to the native state. These results suggest that the intermediate could be an off-pathway type, possibly a misfolded state, that has to undergo unfolding on its way to the native state.
