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

Peptides are frequently used model systems for protein folding. They are also gaining increased importance as therapeutics. Here, the ability of molecular dynamics (MD) simulation for describing the structure and dynamics of β-hairpin peptides was investigated, with special attention given to the impact of a single interstrand sidechain to sidechain interaction. The MD trajectories were compared to structural information gained from solution NMR. By assigning frames from restraint-free MD simulations to an intuitive hydrogen bond on/off pattern, folding ratios and folding pathways were predicted. The computed molecular model successfully reproduces the folding ratios determined by NMR, indicating that MD simulation may be straightforwardly used as a screening tool in β-hairpin design.
