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 Streptococcal C5a peptidase (ScpA) specifically inactivates the human complement factor hC5a, a potent anaphylatoxin recently identified as a therapeutic target for treatment of COVID-19 infections. Engineering of ScpA to enhance its potential as a therapeutic will require detailed examination of the basis for its highly selective activity. The emerging view of ScpA and related subtilases is that selection of their substrates is a dynamic two-step process involving flexibility in the domains around the active site and in the C-ter of the substrate. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analyses of the ScpA-hC5a interaction have shown that high affinity binding of the substrate is driven by electrostatic interactions between an exosite on the Fn2 domain of the enzyme and the bulky N-ter cleavage product (P
