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

Biogenesis of the Gram-negative outer membrane involves the chaperone seventeen kilodalton protein (Skp). A Skp trimer is currently thought to bind its unfolded outer membrane protein (uOMP) substrates. Using sedimentation equilibrium, we discovered that Skp is not an obligate trimer under physiological conditions and that Na(+), Cl(-), Mg(2+), and PO4(3-) ions are not linked to Skp trimerization. These findings suggest that electrostatics play a negligible role in Skp assembly. Our results demonstrate that Skp monomers are populated at biologically relevant concentrations, which raises the idea that kinetic formation of Skp-uOMP complexes likely involves Skp monomer assembly around its substrate. In addition, van't Hoff analysis of Skp self-association does not support a previously proposed coupled folding and trimerization of Skp.
