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 ability of an ice-binding protein (IBP) from Marinomonas primoryensis (MpIBP) to influence ice crystal growth and structure in nonphysiological pH environments was investigated in this work. The ability for MpIBP to retain ice interactivity under stressed environmental conditions was determined via (1) a modified splat assay to determine ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) of polycrystalline ice and (2) nanoliter osmometry to evaluate the ability of MpIBP to dynamically shape the morphology of a single ice crystal. Circular dichroism (CD) was used to relate the IRI and DIS activity of MpIBP to secondary structure. The results illustrate that MpIBP secondary structure was stable between pH 6 and pH 10. It was found that MpIBP did not interact with ice at pH ≤ 4 or pH ≥ 13. At 6 ≤ pH ≥ 12 MpIBP exhibited a reduction in grain size of ice crystals as compared to control solutions and demonstrated dynamic ice shaping at 6 ≤ pH ≥ 10. The results substantiate that MpIBP retains some secondary structure and function in non-neutral pH environments; thereby, enabling its potential utility in nonphysiological materials science and engineering applications.
