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

Neelaredoxins are a type of superoxide reductase (SOR), which are blue 14 kDa metalloproteins with a catalytic nonhaem iron centre coordinated by four histidines and one cysteine in the ferrous form. Anaerobic organisms such as Archaeoglobus fulgidus, a hyperthermophilic sulfate-reducing archaeon, have developed defence mechanisms against toxic oxygen species in which superoxide reductases play a key role. SOR is responsible for scavenging toxic superoxide anion radicals (O(2)(*-)), catalysing the one-electron reduction of superoxide to hydrogen peroxide. Crystals of recombinant A. fulgidus neelaredoxin in the oxidized form (13.7 kDa, 125 residues) were obtained using polyethylene glycol and ammonium sulfate. These crystals diffracted to 1.9 A resolution and belonged to the tetragonal space group P4(1)2(1)2, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 75.72, c = 185.44 A. Cell-content analysis indicated the presence of a tetramer in the asymmetric unit, with a Matthews coefficient (V(M)) of 2.36 A(3) Da(-1) and an estimated solvent content of 48%. The three-dimensional structure was determined by the MAD method and is currently under refinement.
