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

Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are useful tools for the delivery of a wide variety of cargo into cells. Our lab has developed two classes of CPPs based on β-hairpin sequences, one that folds at the surface of cell membranes and the other that is intrinsically disordered. Although these peptides can effectively deliver different types of cargo, their use in protein delivery has been hindered due to the presence of non-natural D-proline within the central turn region of both sequences, which prohibits functionalizing proteins with the CPPs via standard expression protocols. In this work, we describe new CPPs that replace the non-natural turn region with natural turn motifs amenable to protein expression. We first investigate how these changes within the turn affect various CPP-related properties in the absence of protein cargo, and then generate protein fusions for intracellular delivery.
