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

Only a small percentage of protein kinases have been shown to adopt a distinct inactive ATP-binding site conformation, called the Asp-Phe-Gly-out (DFG-out) conformation. Given the high degree of homology within this enzyme family, we sought to understand the basis of this disparity on a sequence level. We identified two residue positions that sensitize mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) to inhibitors that stabilize the DFG-out inactive conformation. After characterizing the structure and dynamics of an inhibitor-sensitive MAPK mutant, we demonstrated the generality of this strategy by sensitizing a kinase (apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1) not in the MAPK family to several DFG-out stabilizing ligands, using the same residue positions. The use of specific inactive conformations may aid the study of noncatalytic roles of protein kinases, such as binding partner interactions and scaffolding effects.
