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 (un)folding is a complex and essential process. With the rapid development of single-molecule techniques, we can detect multiple and transient proteins (un)folding pathways/intermediates. However, the observation of multiple multistep (>2) unfolding scenarios for a single protein domain remains limited. Here, we chose metalloprotein with relatively stable and multiple metal-ligand coordination bonds as a system for such a purpose. Using AFM-based single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS), we successfully demonstrated the complex and multistep protein unfolding scenarios of the β-domain of a human protein metallothionein-3 (MT). MT is a protein of ~60 amino acids (aa) in length with 20 cysteines for various metal binding, and the β-domain (βMT) is of ~30 aa with an M
