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 presence of suitable cavities or pockets on protein structures is a general criterion for a therapeutic target protein to be classified as 'druggable'. Many disease-related proteins that function solely through protein-protein interactions lack such pockets, making development of inhibitors by traditional small-molecule structure-based design methods much more challenging. The 22 kDa bacterial thiol oxidoreductase enzyme, DsbA, from the gram-negative bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei (BpsDsbA) is an example of one such target. The crystal structure of oxidized BpsDsbA lacks well-defined surface pockets. BpsDsbA is required for the correct folding of numerous virulence factors in B. pseudomallei, and genetic deletion of dsbA significantly attenuates B. pseudomallei virulence in murine infection models. Therefore, BpsDsbA is potentially an attractive drug target. Herein we report the identification of a small molecule binding site adjacent to the catalytic site of oxidized BpsDsbA.
