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 effect of the temperature and salt solution on the structural characteristics of the protein 1BBL was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The paper presents simulation results regarding the non-bonded energy and the structural stability of the protein immersed in salt solutions with different concentrations and temperatures. Our work demonstrates that the electrostatic potential energy and van der Waals energy of the system show the opposite changes with the influence of the external environment. Since the electrostatic potential energy changes more obviously, it is dominated in the non-bonding interactions. The structural parameters, such as the root mean square deviation and the radius of gyration, increased initially and decreased afterward with the increase of the salt concentration. The protein presented the loose structure with a relative low stability when it was immersed in a monovalent solution with a salt concentration of 0.8 mol/L. The salt concentration corresponding to the maximum value of structural parameters in the monovalent salt solution was double that in the divalent salt solution. It was also concluded that the protein presented a compact and stable structure when immersed in salt solutions with a high concentration of 2.3 mol/L. The analysis of the root mean square deviation and root mean square fluctuation of the protein sample also exhibited that the structural stability and chain flexibility are strongly guided by the effect of the temperature. These conclusions help us to understand the structural characteristics of the protein immersed in the salt solutions with different concentrations and temperatures.
