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

Amyloid formation involves the conversion of soluble protein species to an aggregated state. Amyloid fibrils of β-parvalbumin, a protein abundant in fish, act as an allergen but also inhibit the in vitro assembly of the Parkinson protein α-synuclein. However, the intrinsic aggregation mechanism of β-parvalbumin has not yet been elucidated. We performed biophysical experiments in combination with mathematical modeling of aggregation kinetics and discovered that the aggregation of β-parvalbumin is initiated by the formation of dimers stabilized by disulfide bonds and then proceeds via primary nucleation and fibril elongation processes. Dimer formation is accelerated by H
