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

An estimated half of all proteins contain a metal, with these being essential for a tremendous variety of biological functions. X-ray crystallography is the major method for obtaining structures at high resolution of these metalloproteins, but there are considerable challenges to obtain intact structures due to the effects of radiation damage. Serial crystallography offers the prospect of determining low-dose synchrotron or effectively damage free XFEL structures at room temperature and enables time-resolved or dose-resolved approaches. Complementary spectroscopic data can validate redox and or ligand states within metalloprotein crystals. In this opinion, we discuss developments in the application of serial crystallographic approaches to metalloproteins and comment on future directions.
