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

Alginate lyases can be used to produce well-defined alginate oligosaccharides (AOSs) because of their specificities for AOS products. A large number of alginate lyases have been recorded in the CAZy database; however, the majority are annotated-only alginate lyases that include little information on their products, thus limiting their applications. Here, we establish a simple and experiment-saving approach to predict product distributions for PL7 alginate lyases through extensive structural biology, bioinformatics and biochemical studies. Structural study on several PL7 alginate lyases reveals that two loops around the substrate binding cleft determine product distribution. Furthermore, a database containing the loop information of all annotated-only single-domain PL7 alginate lyases is constructed, enabling systematic exploration of the association between loop and product distribution. Based on these results, a simplified loop/product distribution relationship is proposed, giving us information on product distribution directly from the amino acid sequence.
