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 transmembrane domain (TMD) of the amyloid precursor protein of Alzheimer's disease is cut processively by γ-secretase through endoproteolysis and tricarboxypeptidase "trimming". We recently developed a prototype substrate TMD mimetic for structural analysis-composed of a helical peptide inhibitor linked to a transition-state analogue-that simultaneously engages a substrate exosite and the active site and is pre-organized to trap the carboxypeptidase transition state. Here, we developed variants of this prototype designed to allow visualization of transition states for endoproteolysis, TMD helix unwinding, and lateral gating of the substrate, identifying potent inhibitors for each class. These TMD mimetics exhibited non-competitive inhibition and occupy both the exosite and the active site, as demonstrated by inhibitor cross-competition experiments and photoaffinity probe binding assays. The new probes should be important structural tools for trapping different stages of substrate recognition and processing
