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

Nature makes extensive and elaborate use of hydrogen bonding to assemble and stabilize biomolecular structures. The shapes of peptides and proteins rely significantly on N-H⋯O[double bond, length as m-dash]C interactions, which are the linchpins of turns, sheets and helices. The C5 H-bond, in which a single residue provides both donor and acceptor, is generally considered too weak to force the backbone to adopt extended structures. Exploiting the synergy between gas phase (experimental and quantum chemistry) and solution spectroscopies to decipher IR spectroscopic data, this work demonstrates that the extended C5-based conformation in 4-membered ring heterocyclic α-amino acid derivatives is significantly stabilized by the formation of an N-H⋯X H-bond. In this synergic system the strength of the C5 interaction remains constant while the N-H⋯X H-bond strength, and thereby the support provided by it, varies with the heteroatom.
