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 reaction mechanism of cis-3-chloroacrylic acid dehalogenase (cis-CaaD) is studied using the B3LYP density functional theory method. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolytic dehalogenation of cis-3-chloroacrylic acid to yield malonate semialdehyde and HCl. The uncatalyzed reaction is first considered, and excellent agreement is found between the calculated barrier and the measured rate constant. The enzymatic reaction is then studied with an active site model consisting of 159 atoms. The results suggest an alternative mechanism for cis-CaaD catalysis and different roles for some active site residues in this mechanism.
