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

Isoforms of the smooth muscle (SM) myosin motor domain differ in the presence or absence of a seven amino acid insert in a flexible surface loop spanning the nucleotide-binding pocket known as Loop 1. The presence of this insert leads to a two-fold increase in actin sliding velocity and ADP release rate between these isoforms, although the effect of Loop 1 on the kinetics of ADP release remains unclear. To further investigate the role of the Loop 1 insert in modulating ADP release in SM myosin we have inserted a single tryptophan residue into Loop 1 of both isoforms as a probe of local structural dynamics. By monitoring the dynamics of Loop 1 in relation to the release of ADP we have observed a unique movement of Loop 1 in the inserted isoform, preceding nucleotide release, which is absent in the non-inserted isoform. This movement is sequence dependent as alanine replacement of the insert residues abolishes the transition and slows ADP release. Thus movement of Loop 1 is a critical factor in increasing the ADP release rate in the inserted faster isoform of SM myosin.
