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 last 20 years have seen a dramatic increase in our mechanistic understanding of the reactions catalyzed by pyranopterin Mo and W enzymes. These enzymes possess a unique cofactor (Moco) that contains a novel ligand in bioinorganic chemistry, the pyranopterin ene-1,2-dithiolate. A synopsis of Moco biosynthesis and structure is presented, along with our current understanding of the role Moco plays in enzymatic catalysis. Oxygen atom transfer (OAT) reactivity is discussed in terms of breaking strong metal-oxo bonds and the mechanism of OAT catalyzed by enzymes of the sulfite oxidase (SO) family that possess dioxo Mo(VI) active sites. OAT reactivity is also discussed in members of the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) reductase family, which possess des-oxo Mo(IV) sites. Finally, we reveal what is known about hydride transfer reactivity in xanthine oxidase (XO) family enzymes and the formate dehydrogenases. The formal hydride transfer reactivity catalyzed by xanthine oxidase family enzymes is complex and cleaves substrate C-H bonds using a mechanism that is distinct from monooxygenases. The chapter primarily highlights developments in the field that have occurred since ~2000, which have contributed to our collective structural and mechanistic understanding of the three canonical pyranopterin Mo enzymes families: XO, SO, and DMSO reductase.
