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

High-pressure Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to determine the pressure and temperature stability of Mal d1. This study was triggered by contradictory results in the literature regarding the success of pressure treatment in the destruction of the allergen. The protein unfolded at 55°C when heated at normal atmospheric pressure. We also studied the effect exerted on pressure stability by environmental factors, which can be important for the stability of the protein in the apple. The pressure unfolding was measured under different pD conditions, and the effect of sugar mixture similar to that of the apple and the effect of ionic strength were also studied. In all cases the allergen unfolded with a transition midpoint in the range of 150-250 MPa. Unfolding was irreversible and was followed by aggregation of the unfolded protein. Lowering the pD destabilized the protein, while addition of sugar mixture and of KCl had stabilizing effect.
