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

Human manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) is one of the most significant enzymes in preventing mitochondrial dysfunction and related diseases by combating reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the mitochondrial matrix. Mitochondria are the source of up to 90% of cellular ROS generation, and MnSOD performs its necessary bioprotective role by converting superoxide into oxygen and hydrogen peroxide. This vital catalytic function is conducted via cyclic redox reactions between the substrate and the active-site manganese using proton-coupled electron transfers. Owing to protons being difficult to detect experimentally, the series of proton transfers that compose the catalytic mechanism of MnSOD are unknown. Here, methods are described to discern the proton-based mechanism using chemical treatments to control the redox state of large perdeuterated MnSOD crystals and subsequent neutron diffraction. These methods could be applicable to other crystal systems in which proton information on the molecule in question in specific chemical states is desired.
