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

A heme model system has been developed in which the heme-propionate is the only proton donating/accepting site, using protoporphyrin IX-monomethyl esters (PPIX(MME)) and N-methylimidazole (MeIm). Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactions of these model compounds have been examined in acetonitrile solvent. (PPIX(MME))Fe(III)(MeIm)(2)-propionate (Fe(III)~CO(2)) is readily reduced by the ascorbate derivative 5,6-isopropylidine ascorbate to give (PPIX(MME))Fe(II)(MeIm)(2)-propionic acid (Fe(II)~CO(2)H). An excess of the hydroxylamine TEMPOH or of hydroquinone similarly reduces Fe(III)~CO(2), and TEMPO and benzoquinone oxidize Fe(II)~CO(2)H to return to Fe(III)~CO(2). The measured equilibrium constants, and the determined pK(a) and E(1/2) values, indicate that Fe(II)~CO(2)H has an effective bond dissociation free energy (BDFE) of 67.8 ± 0.6 kcal mol(-1). In these PPIX models, electron transfer occurs at the iron center and proton transfer occurs at the remote heme propionate. According to thermochemical and other arguments, the TEMPOH reaction occurs by concerted proton-electron transfer (CPET), and a similar pathway is indicated for the ascorbate derivative. Based on these results, heme propionates should be considered as potential key components of PCET/CPET active sites in heme proteins.
