Synthesis of radiolabeled nicotinamide cofactors from labeled pyridines: versatile probes for enzyme kinetics.
Article in Analytical biochemistry, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
(14)C-labeled nicotinamide cofactors are widely employed in biomedical investigations, for example, to delineate metabolic pathways, to elucidate enzymatic mechanisms, and as substrates in kinetic isotope effect (KIE) experiments. The (14)C label has generally been located remote from the reactive position, frequently at the adenine ring. Rising costs of commercial precursors and disruptions in the availability of enzymes required for established syntheses have recently made the preparation of labeled nicotinamides such as [Ad-(14)C]NADPH unviable. Here, we report the syntheses and characterization of several alternatives: [carbonyl-(14)C]NADPH, 4R-[carbonyl-(14)C, 4-(2)H]NADPH, and [carbonyl-(14)C, 4-(2)H(2)]NADPH. The new procedures use [carbonyl-(14)C]nicotinamide as starting material, because it is significantly cheaper than other commercial (14)C precursors of NADPH, and require only one commercially available enzyme to prepare NAD(P)(+) and NAD(P)H. The proximity of carbonyl-(14)C to the reactive center raises the risk of an inopportune (14)C isotope effect. This concern has been alleviated via competitive KIE measurements with Escherichia coli dihydrofolate reductase (EcDHFR) that use this specific carbonyl-(14)C NADPH. A combination of binding isotope effect and KIE measurements yielded no significant (12)C/(14)C isotope effect at the amide carbonyl (KIE=1.003±0.004). The reported procedure provides a high-yield, high-purity, and cost-effective alternative to labeled nicotinamide cofactors synthesized by previously published routes.
