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

Protein misfolding and aggregation is now recognized as a hallmark of numerous human diseases. Standard bioanalytical techniques for monitoring protein aggregation generally rely on small molecules that provide an optical readout of fibril formation. While these methods have been useful for mechanistic studies, additional approaches are required to probe the equilibrium between soluble and insoluble protein within living systems. Such approaches could provide platforms for the identification of inhibitors of protein aggregation as well as a means to investigate the effect of mutations on protein aggregation in model systems. In this chapter, we provide detailed protocols for employing split-NanoLuc luciferase (Nluc) fragments to monitor changes in protein solubility in bacterial and mammalian cells. This sensitive luminesce-based assay can report upon changes in protein solubility induced by inhibitors and disease-relevant mutations.
