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

The gas-phase thermochemical properties (tautomeric energies, acidity, and proton affinity) have been measured and calculated for adenine and six adenine analogues that were designed to test features of the catalytic mechanism used by the adenine glycosylase MutY. The gas-phase intrinsic properties are correlated to possible excision mechanisms and MutY excision rates to gain insight into the MutY mechanism. The data support a mechanism involving protonation at N7 and hydrogen bonding to N3 of adenine. We also explored the acid-catalyzed (non-enzymatic) depurination of these substrates, which appears to follow a different mechanism than that employed by MutY, which we elucidate using calculations.
