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

Evaluation of the structural perturbations introduced by a single amino acid mutation is the main issue for protein structural biology. We propose here to present some recent advances in methods, allowing the splitting of distortion between the actual substitution effect and the contribution of the local flexibility of the position where the mutation occurs. Its main drawback is the need of many structures with a single mutation in each of them. To bypass this difficulty, we propose to use molecular modeling tools, with several software enabling us to build a model from a template, given the sequence. As a proof of concept, we rely on a gold standard, the human lysozyme. Both wild-type and three mutant structures are available in the PDB. Two of these mutations result in amyloid fibril formation, and the last one is neutral. As a conclusion, irrespective of the algorithm used for modeling, side chain conformations at the site of mutation are reliable, although long-range effects are out of reach of these tools.
