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 amyloidophilic dyes thioflavin T and Congo red are small, yet powerful, molecules that allow the in vitro and in vivo detection of amyloid fibrils in protein solutions. Even though Congo red and thioflavin T binding assays are widespread techniques for unveiling amyloid fibers and are gradually replacing the more demanding X-ray diffraction method, handling samples containing amyloid fibrils is still challenging and can lead to false-positive/negative results. Here we describe a relatively straightforward procedure of preparing hen egg-white lysozyme amyloid fibrils in different buffer solutions and their detection with thioflavin T and Congo red, supported by an indispensable method for determining the secondary structure of proteins - circular dichroism.
