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 sequence similarity networks (SSNs) constitute a convenient approach to analyze large polypeptide sequence datasets, and have been successfully applied to study a number of protein families over the past decade. SSN analysis is herein combined with traditional cladistic and phenetic phylogenetic analysis (respectively based on multiple sequence alignments and all-against-all three-dimensional protein structure comparisons) in order to assist the ancestral reconstruction and integrative revision of the superfamily of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs). It is shown that only 198 out of 15,292 representative nodes contain at least one experimentally obtained protein structure in the Protein Data Bank or a manually annotated SwissProt entry, that is to say, only 1.3 % of the superfamily has been functionally and/or structurally characterized. Besides, neighborhood connectivity coloring, which measures local network interconnectivity, is introduced for detection of protein families within SSN clusters. This approach provides a clear picture of how many families remain unexplored in the superfamily, while most MBL research is heavily biased towards a few families. Further research is suggested in order to determine the SSN topological properties, which will be instrumental for the improvement of automated sequence annotation methods.
