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

Amyloid fibril formation is associated with numerous neurodegenerative diseases. To elucidate the mechanism of fibril formation, the thioflavin T (ThT) fluorescence assay is widely used. ThT is a fluorescent dye that selectively binds to amyloid fibrils and exhibits fluorescence enhancement, which enables quantitative analysis of the fibril formation process. However, the detailed binding mechanism has remained unclear. Here we acquire real-time profiles of fibril formation of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) using high-sensitivity Rheo-NMR spectroscopy and detect weak and strong interactions between ThT and SOD1 fibrils in a time-dependent manner. Real-time information on the interaction between ThT and fibrils will contribute to the understanding of the binding mechanism of ThT to fibrils. In addition, our method provides an alternative way to analyze fibril formation.
