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

β-Lactam antibiotics are the mainstay for the treatment of bacterial infections. However, elevated resistance to these antibiotics mediated by metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) has become a global concern. New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1 (NDM-1), a newly added member of the MBL family that can hydrolyze almost all β-lactam antibiotics, has rapidly spread all over the world and poses serious clinical threats. Broad-spectrum and mechanism-based inhibitors against all MBLs are highly desired, but the differential mechanisms of MBLs toward different antibiotics pose a great challenge. To facilitate the design of mechanism-based inhibitors, we investigated the active-site conformational changes of NDM-1 through the determination of a series of 15 high-resolution crystal structures in native form and in complex with products and by using biochemical and biophysical studies, site-directed mutagenesis, and molecular dynamics computation. The structural studies reveal the consistency of the active-site conformations in NDM-1/product complexes and the fluctuation in native NDM-1 structures. The enzymatic measurements indicate a correlation between enzymatic activity and the active-site fluctuation, with more fluctuation favoring higher activity. This correlation is further validated by structural and enzymatic studies of the Q123G mutant. Our combinational studies suggest that active-site conformational fluctuation promotes the enzymatic activity of NDM-1, which may guide further mechanism studies and inhibitor design.
