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

Along with aggregation of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide and subsequent deposit of amyloid plaques, oxidative stress is an important feature in Alzheimer's disease. Cu bound to Aβ is able to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) by the successive reductions of molecular dioxygen, and the ROS produced contribute to oxidative stress. In vitro, ascorbate consumption parallels ROS production, where ascorbate is the reductant that fuels the reactions. Because the affinity of Cu for Aβ is moderate compared to other biomolecules, the rate of ascorbate consumption is a combination of two contributions. The first one is due to peptide-unbound Cu and the second one to peptide-bound Cu complexes. In the present Article, we aim to determine the amounts of the second contribution in the global ascorbate consumption process. It is defined as the intrinsic rate of ascorbate oxidation, which mathematically corresponds to the rate at an infinite peptide to Cu ratio, i.e., without any contribution from peptide-unbound Cu. We show that, for the wild-type Cu(Aβ) complex, this value equals 10% of the value obtained for peptide-unbound Cu and that this value is strongly dependent on peptide alterations. By examination of the dependence of the intrinsic rate of ascorbate oxidation, followed by UV-vis spectroscopy, for several altered peptides, we determine some of the key residues that influence ROS production.
