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

The wild type protein, transthyretin (TTR), and over 120 genetic TTR variants are amyloidogenic and cause, respectively, sporadic and hereditary systemic TTR amyloidosis. The homotetrameric TTR contains two identical thyroxine binding pockets, occupation of which by specific ligands can inhibit TTR amyloidogenesis in vitro. Ligand binding stabilizes the tetramer, inhibiting its proteolytic cleavage and its dissociation. Here, we show with solution-state NMR that ligand binding induces long-distance conformational changes in the TTR that have not previously been detected by X-ray crystallography, consistently with the inhibition of the cleavage of the DE loop. The NMR findings, coupled with surface plasmon resonance measurements, have identified dynamic exchange processes underlying the negative cooperativity of binding of "monovalent" ligand tafamidis. In contrast, mds84, our prototypic "bivalent" ligand, which is a more potent stabilizer of TTR in vitro that occupies both thyroxine pockets and the intramolecular channel between them, has greater structural effects.
