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

This study was aimed at improving the thermostability of dextran glucosidase PspAG97A, a member of the glycoside hydrolase family 97, from Pseudoalteromonas sp. K8. A total of 9 lysine residues were chosen using the TKSA-MC program based on the optimization of surface charge-charge interactions and were mutated to glutamate for shifting the enzyme's isoelectric point off its optimum pH value. Three mutants K75E, K363E and K420E showed enhanced thermostability. The triple mutant, K75E/K363E/K420E, was found to be the best with a 7.3-fold increase in half-life (t
