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 complete structure of the assembled domains of nitric oxide-sensitive guanylate cyclase (NOsGC) remains to be determined. It is also unknown how binding of NO to heme in guanylate cyclase is communicated to the catalytic domain. In the current study the conformational change of guanylate cyclase on activation by NO was studied using FRET. Endogenous tryptophan residues were used as donors, the substrate analog 2'-Mant-3'-dGTP as acceptor. The enzyme contains five tryptophan residues distributed evenly over all four functional domains. This provides a unique opportunity to detect the movement of the functional domains relative to the substrate-binding catalytic region. FRET measurements indicate that NO brings tryptophan 22 in the αB helix of the β1 heme NO binding domain and tryptophan 466 in the second short helix of the α1 coiled-coil domain closer to the catalytic domain. We propose that the respective domains act as a pair of tongs forcing the catalytic domain into the nitric oxide-activated conformation.
