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

Mutant myocilin aggregation is associated with inherited open angle glaucoma, a prevalent optic neuropathy leading to blindness. Comprehension of mutant myocilin aggregation is of fundamental importance to glaucoma pathogenesis and ties glaucoma to amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer's. Here, we probe the aggregation properties of peptides derived from the myocilin olfactomedin domain. Peptides P1 (residues 326-337) and P3 (residues 426-442) were identified previously to form amyloids. Coarse-grained discontinuous molecular dynamics simulations using the PRIME20 force field (DMD/PRIME20) predict that P1 and P3 are aggregation-prone; P1 consistently forms fibrillar aggregates with parallel in-register β-sheets, whereas P3 forms β-sheet-containing aggregates without distinct order.
