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

While 3D structure determination of small (<15 kDa) proteins by solution NMR is largely automated and routine, structural analysis of larger proteins is more challenging. An emerging hybrid strategy for modeling protein structures combines sparse NMR data that can be obtained for larger proteins with sequence co-variation data, called evolutionary couplings (ECs), obtained from multiple sequence alignments of protein families. This hybrid "EC-NMR" method can be used to accurately model larger (15-60 kDa) proteins, and more rapidly determine structures of smaller (5-15 kDa) proteins using only backbone NMR data. The resulting structures have accuracies relative to reference structures comparable to those obtained with full backbone and sidechain NMR resonance assignments. The requirement that evolutionary couplings (ECs) are consistent with NMR data recorded on a specific member of a protein family, under specific conditions, potentially also allows identification of ECs that reflect alternative allosteric or excited states of the protein structure.
