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

Cysteine residues are concentrated at key functional sites within proteins, performing diverse roles in metal binding, catalysis, and redox chemistry. Chemoproteomic platforms to interrogate the reactive cysteinome have developed significantly over the past 10 years, resulting in a greater understanding of cysteine functionality, modification, and druggability. Recently, chemoproteomic methods to examine reactive cysteine residues from specific subcellular organelles have provided significantly improved proteome coverage and highlights the unique functionalities of cysteine residues mediated by cellular localization. Here, the diverse physicochemical properties of the mammalian subcellular organelles are explored in the context of their effects on cysteine reactivity. The unique functions of cysteine residues found in the mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum are highlighted, together with an overview into chemoproteomic platforms employed to investigate cysteine reactivity in subcellular organelles.
