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

A new fluorometric assay is presented for the ultrasensitive quantification of total protein carbonyls, and is based on their specific reaction with rhodamine B hydrazide (RBH), and the production of a protein carbonyl-RBH hydrazone the fluorescence of which (at ex/em 560/585 nm) is greatly enhanced by guanidine-HCl. Compared to the fluorescein-5-thiosemicarbazide (FTC)-based fluorometric assay, the RBH assay uses a 24-fold shorter reaction incubation time (1 h) and at least 1000-fold lower protein quantity (2.5 µg), and produces very reliable data that were verified by extensive standardization experiments. The protein carbonyl group detection sensitivity limit of the RBH assay, based on its standard curve, can be as low as 0.4 pmol, and even lower. Counting the very low protein limit of the RBH assay, its cumulative and functional sensitivity is 8500- and 800-fold higher than the corresponding ones for the FTC assay. Neither heme proteins hemoglobin and cytochrome c nor DNA interfere with the RBH assay.
