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 dynamics on various time scales from femtoseconds to milliseconds impacts biological function by driving proteins to conformations conducive to ligand binding and creating functional states in enzyme catalysis. Neutron vibrational spectroscopy carried out by measuring inelastic neutron scattering from protein molecules in combination with molecular simulations has the unique ability of detecting and visualizing changes in the picosecond protein vibrational dynamics due to ligand binding. Here we present neutron vibrational spectra of a homodimeric pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme, aspartate aminotransferase, obtained from the open internal aldimine and closed external aldimine conformational states. We observe that in the external aldimine state the protein structure stiffens relative to the internal aldimine state, indicating rigidified vibrational dynamics on the picosecond time scale in the low-frequency regime of 5-50 cm
