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

ALDH16 is a novel family of the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) superfamily with unique structural characteristics that distinguish it from the other ALDH superfamily members. In addition to structural characteristics, there is an evolutionary-related grouping within the ALDH 16 genes. The ALDH16 isozymes in frog, lower animals, and bacteria possess a critical Cys residue in their active site, which is absent from ALDH16 in mammals and fish. Genomic analysis and plasma metabolomic studies have associated ALDH16A1 with the pathogenesis of gout in humans, although its actual involvement in this disease is poorly understood. Insight into the structure of ALDH16A1 is an important step in deciphering its function in gout. Herein, we report our efforts towards the structural characterization of Xenopus tropicalis ALDH16B1 (the homolog of human ALDH16A1) that was predicted to be catalytically-active. Recombinant ALDH16B1 was expressed in Sf9 cells and purified using affinity and size exclusion chromatography. Crystallization of ALDH16B1 was achieved by vapor diffusion. A data set was collected at 2.5 Å and preliminary crystallographic analysis showed that the frog ALDH16B1 crystals belong to the P 2
