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

β-Lactamases hydrolyze β-lactam antibiotics to provide drug resistance to bacteria. β-Lactamase inhibitory protein-II (BLIP-II) is a potent proteinaceous inhibitor that exhibits low picomolar affinity for class A β-lactamases. This study examines the driving forces for binding between BLIP-II and β-lactamases using a combination of presteady state kinetics, isothermal titration calorimetry, and x-ray crystallography. The measured dissociation rate constants for BLIP-II and various β-lactamases ranged from 10(-4) to 10(-7) s(-1) and are comparable with those found in some of the tightest known protein-protein interactions. The crystal structures of BLIP-II alone and in complex with Bacillus anthracis Bla1 β-lactamase revealed no significant side-chain movement in BLIP-II in the complex versus the monomer. The structural rigidity of BLIP-II minimizes the loss of the entropy upon complex formation and, as indicated by thermodynamics experiments, may be a key determinant of the observed potent inhibition of β-lactamases.
