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 studies on the L. pectinata hemoglobins (HbI, HbII, and HbIII) are essential because of their biological roles in hydrogen sulfide transport and metabolism. Variation in the pH could also play a role in the transport of hydrogen sulfide by HbI and oxygen by HbII and HbIII, respectively. Here, fluoride binding was used to further understand the structural properties essential for the molecular mechanism of ligand stabilization as a function of pH. The data allowed us to gain insights into how the physiological roles of HbI, HbII, HbIII, adult hemoglobin (A-Hb), and horse heart myoglobin (Mb) have an impact on the heme-bound fluoride stabilization. In addition, analysis of the vibrational assignments of the met-cyano heme complexes shows varied strength interactions of the heme-bound ligand. The heme pocket composition properties differ between HbI (GlnE7 and PheB10) and HbII/HbIII (GlnE7 and TyrB10). Also, the structural GlnE7 stereo orientation changes between HbI and HbII/HbIII. In HbI, its carbonyl group orients towards the heme iron, while in HbII/HbIII, the amino group occupies this position. Therefore, in HbI, the interactions to the heme-bound fluoride ion, cyanide, and oxygen with GlnE7 via H-bonding are not probable. Still, the aromatic cage PheB10, PheCD1, and PheE11 may contribute to the observed stabilization. However, a robust H-bonding networking stabilizes HbII and HbIII, heme-bound fluoride, cyanide, and oxygen ligand with the OH and NH
