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

Rat aldose reductase-like protein (AKR1B14) is an orthologue of mouse vas deferens protein (AKR1B7) and plays roles in the detoxification of reactive aldehydes and synthesis of prostaglandin F(2α). Here, the 1.87 Å resolution crystal structure of the His269Arg mutant of AKR1B14 complexed with NADPH is described and shows that the negatively charged 2'-phosphate group of the coenzyme forms an ionic interaction with the positively charged guanidinium group of Arg269 that is also observed in the human aldose reductase (AKR1B1) structure. Previous experiments on the site-directed mutagenesis of His269 to Arg, Phe and Met revealed fourfold, sevenfold and 127-fold increases in the K(m) for NADPH, respectively, which are in agreement with the present molecular-modelling and X-ray crystallographic studies. This is the first tertiary structure of a mutant form of this AKR1B7 orthologue to be reported in order to investigate the structure-function relationship of the nonconserved His269 and its role in coenzyme binding.
