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

Of the three cold shock proteins expressed by Staphylococcus aureus, CspC is induced poorly by cold but strongly by various antibiotics and toxic chemicals. Using a purified CspC, here we demonstrate that it exists as a monomer in solution, possesses primarily β-sheets, and bears substantial structural similarity with other bacterial Csps. Aggregation of CspC was initiated rapidly at temperatures above 40 °C, whereas, the Gibbs free energy of stabilization of CspC at 0 M GdmCl was estimated to be +1.6 kcal mol(-1), indicating a less stable protein. Surprisingly, CspC showed stable binding with ssDNA carrying a stretch of more than three thymine bases and binding with such ssDNA had not only stabilized CspC against proteolytic degradation but also quenched the fluorescence intensity from its exposed Trp residue. Analysis of quenching data indicates that each CspC molecule binds with ∼5 contiguous thymine bases of the above ssDNA and binding is cooperative in nature.
