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

Cholinesterases display a hysteretic behavior with certain substrates and irreversible inhibitors. For years, this behavior has remained puzzling. However, several lines of evidence indicated that it is caused by perturbation of the catalytic triad and its water environment. In the present study, using molecular dynamics simulations of Ala328Cys BuChE mutant and wild-type BuChE in the absence and presence of a co-solvent (sucrose, glycerol), we provide evidence that hysteresis originates in a flip of the catalytic triad histidine (His438). This event is controlled by water molecules that interact with active site residues. The physiological significance of this phenomenon is still an issue.
