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

UDP-galactopyranose mutase (UGM) catalyzes the interconversion of UDP-galactopyranose and UDP-galactofuranose. Eukaryotic UGMs from Aspergillus fumigatus and Leishmania major have been purified to homogeneity by means of Ni(2+)-affinity chromatography and crystallized. Eukaryotic UGM structure elucidation was not straightforward owing to high pseudo-symmetry, twinning and very low anomalous signal. Phasing to 2.8 Å resolution using SAD was successful for L. major UGM. However, the maps could only be improved by iterative density modification and manual model building. High pseudo-symmetry and twinning prevented correct space-group assignment and the completion of structure refinement. The structure of A. fumigatus UGM to 2.52 Å resolution was determined by molecular replacement using the incomplete 2.8 Å resolution L. major UGM model.
