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

Ecto-nucleotidase enzymes catalyze the hydrolysis of extracellular nucleotides to their respective nucleosides. Herein, we place the focus on the elucidation of structural features of the cell surface located ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (E-NTPDase1-3 and 8). The physiological role of these isozymes is crucially important as they control purinergic signaling by modulating the extracellular availability of nucleotides. Since, crystal or NMR structure of the human isozymes are not available - structures have been obtained by homology modeling. Refinement of the homology models with poor stereo-chemical quality is of utmost importance in order to derive reliable structures for subsequent studies. Therefore, the resultant models obtained by homology modelling were refined by running molecular dynamic simulation. Binding mode analysis of standard substrates and of competitive inhibitor was conducted to highlight important regions of the active site involved in hydrolysis of the substrates and possible mechanism of inhibition.
