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

It has proven challenging to obtain collagen-mimetic fibrils by protein design. We recently reported the self-assembly of a mini-fibril showing a 35 nm, D-period like, axially repeating structure using the designed triple helix Col108. Peptide Col108 was made by bacterial expression using a synthetic gene; its triple helix domain consists of three pseudo-identical units of amino acid sequence arranged in tandem. It was postulated that the 35 nm d-period of Col108 mini-fibrils originates from the periodicity of the Col108 primary structure. A mutual staggering of one sequence unit of the associating Col108 triple helices can maximize the inter-helical interactions and produce the observed 35 nm d-period. Based on this unit-staggered model, a triple helix consisting of only two sequence units is expected to have the potential to form the same d-periodic mini-fibrils. Indeed, when such a peptide, peptide 2U108, was made it was found to self-assemble into mini-fibrils having the same d-period of 35 nm. In contrast, no d-periodic mini-fibrils were observed for peptide 1U108, which does not have long-range repeating sequences in its primary structure. The findings of the periodic mini-fibrils of Col108 and 2U108 suggest a way forward to create collagen-mimetic fibrils for biomedical and industrial applications.
