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

We present a new classification of β-turns specific to antiparallel β-sheets based upon the topology of H-bond formation. This classification results from ONIOM calculations using B3LYP/D95** density functional theory and AM1 semiempirical calculations as the high and low levels, respectively. We chose acetyl(Ala)(6)NH(2) as a model system as it is the simplest all-alanine system that can form all the H-bonds required for a β-turn in a sheet. Of the 10 different conformations we have found, the most stable structures have C(7) cyclic H-bonds in place of the C(10) interactions specified in the classic definition. Also, the chiralities specified for residues i + 1 and i + 2 in the classic definition disappear when the structures are optimized using our techniques, as the energetic differences among the four diastereomers of each structure are not substantial for 8 of the 10 conformations.
