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 crystal structure of the 268-residue periplasmic protein PA1624 from the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was determined to high resolution using the Se-SAD method for initial phasing. The protein was found to be monomeric and the structure consists of two domains, domains 1 and 2, comprising residues 24-184 and 185-268, respectively. The fold of these domains could not be predicted even using state-of-the-art prediction methods, and similarity searches revealed only a very distant homology to known structures, namely to Mog1p/PsbP-like and OmpA-like proteins for the N- and C-terminal domains, respectively. Since PA1624 is only present in an important human pathogen, its unique structure and periplasmic location render it a potential drug target. Consequently, the results presented here may open new avenues for the discovery and design of antibacterial drugs.
