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

Membrane scaffold proteins (MSPs) are synthetic derivatives of apolipoprotein A-I, a major protein component of human high-density lipoprotein complexes. The most common among these is the variant MSP1D1, which has been in the focus of research on membrane mimetics in the past. As such, the amphipathic MSP1D1 has the ability to self-assemble in the presence of synthetic phospholipids into discoidal nanoparticles, so called nanodiscs. The recombinant production of MSP is exclusively reported using a standard laboratory expression system of the pET family. However, strong variations in both yield and achieved concentration as well as complications related to unspecific degradation are commonly reported. In addition, the time-course of recombinant protein as well as specific protein yields have not yet been quantified conclusively. In this study, the time-course of MSP1D1 concentration was investigated in a standard pET expression system in terms of quantification of production and degradation rates in comparison to a reference protein (eGFP).
