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

Using tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB) as a surfactant denaturant, and augmentation of different spectroscopic data, helped to detect the intermediates of hemoglobin (Hb) during unfolding process. UV-vis, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopy were used simultaneously to monitor different aspects of hemoglobin species from the tertiary or secondary structure points of view. Application of the multivariate curve resolution-alternating least square (MCR-ALS), using the initial estimates of spectral profiles and appropriate constraints on different parts of augmented spectroscopic data, showed good efficiency for characterization of intermediates during Hb unfolding. These results indicated the existence of five protein species, including three intermediate-like compounds in this process. The unfolding pathway in the presence of TTAB included conversion of oxyhemoglobin into deoxyhemoglobin, and then ferrylhemoglobin, ferrihemoglobin or aquamethemoglobin, which finally transformed into hemichrome. This is the first application of chemometric analysis on the merged spectroscopic data related to chemical denaturation of a protein. These types of analysis in multisubunit proteins not only increase the domain of information, but also can reduce the ambiguities of the obtained results.
