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

Ubiquitylation (or ubiquitination) is the reversible conjugation of a 76-amino-acid polypeptide (ubiquitin) to a target protein to modulate various biological processes. Deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) are a class of enzymes that specifically remove ubiquitin from a substrate. In recent years DUBs have garnered significant attention as a new class of targets in multiple therapeutic areas. The recent development of high-throughput Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time of Flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has provided new tools to perform drug discovery screening. Here we present a facile and high-throughput step-by-step protocol of the MALDI-TOF MS-based DUB assay for screening the activity of DUBs in vitro. In a MALDI-TOF DUB assay, we quantitate the amount of mono-ubiquitin generated by the in vitro cleavage of ubiquitin chains. The presented protocol takes advantage of nanoliter dispensing robotics and automated MALDI-TOF MS analysis to screen large and diverse compound libraries.
