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

Thioamides are sterically almost identical to their oxoamide counterparts, but they are weaker hydrogen bond acceptors. Therefore, thioamide amino acids are excellent candidates for perturbing the energetics of backbone-backbone H-bonds in proteins and hence should be useful in elucidating protein folding mechanisms in a site-specific manner. Herein, we validate this approach by applying it to probe the dynamic role of interstrand H-bond formation in the folding kinetics of a well-studied β-hairpin, tryptophan zipper. Our results show that reducing the strength of the peptide's backbone-backbone H-bonds, except the one directly next to the β-turn, does not change the folding rate, suggesting that most native interstrand H-bonds in β-hairpins are formed only after the folding transition state.
