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 glutamine binding protein is a vital component of the associated ATP binding cassette transport systems responsible for the uptake of glutamine into the cell. We have investigated the global movements of this protein by molecular dynamics simulations and principal component analysis (PCA). We confirm that the most dominant mode corresponds to the biological function of the protein, i.e., a hinge-type motion upon ligand binding. The closure itself was directly observed from two independent trajectories whereby PCA was used to elucidate the nature of this closing reaction. Two intermediary states are identified and described in detail. The ligand binding induces the structural change of the hinge regions from a discontinuous beta-sheet to a continuous one, which also enhances softness of the hinge and modifies the direction of hinge motion to enable closing. We also investigated the convergence behavior of PCA modes, which were found to converge rather quickly when the associated magnitudes of the eigenvalues are well separated.
