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

Coproheme decarboxylases (ChdC) catalyze the hydrogen peroxide-mediated conversion of coproheme to heme b. This work compares the structure and function of wild-type (WT) coproheme decarboxylase from Listeria monocytogenes and its M149A, Q187A, and M149A/Q187A mutants. The UV-vis, resonance Raman, and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies clearly show that the ferric form of the WT protein is a pentacoordinate quantum mechanically mixed-spin state, which is very unusual in biological systems. Exchange of the Met149 residue to Ala dramatically alters the heme coordination, which becomes a 6-coordinate low spin species with the amide nitrogen atom of the Q187 residue bound to the heme iron. The interaction between M149 and propionyl 2 is found to play an important role in keeping the Q187 residue correctly positioned for closure of the distal cavity. This is confirmed by the observation that in the M149A variant two CO conformers are present corresponding to open (A
