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

Cholesterol oxidase catalyzes the oxidation and isomerization of the cholestane substrates leading to the addition of a hydroxyl group at the C3 position. Rational engineering of the cholesterol oxidase from Pimelobacter simplex (PsChO) was performed. Mutagenesis of V64 and F70 improved the catalytic activities toward cholestane substrates. Molecular dynamics simulations, together with structure-activity relationship analysis, revealed that both V64C and F70V increased the binding free energy between PsChO mutants and cholesterol. F70V and V64C mutations might cause the movement of loops L56-P77, K45-P49 and L350-E354 at active site. They enlarged the substrate-binding cavity and relieved the steric interference with substrates facilitating recognition of C17 hydrophobic substrates with long side chain substrates.
