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

Accurate determination of protein structure at interfaces is critical for understanding protein interactions, which is directly relevant to a molecular-level understanding of interfacial proteins in biology and medicine. Vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectroscopy is often used for probing the protein amide I mode, which reports protein structures at interfaces. Observed peak shifts are attributed to conformational changes and often form the foundation of hypotheses explaining protein working mechanisms. Here, we investigate structurally diverse proteins using conventional and heterodyne-detected VSFG (HD-VSFG) spectroscopy as a function of solution pH. We reveal that blue-shifts of the amide I peak observed in conventional VSFG spectra upon lowering the pH are governed by the drastic change of the nonresonant contribution. Our results highlight that connecting changes in conventional VSFG spectra to conformational changes of interfacial proteins can be arbitrary, and that HD-VSFG measurements are required to draw unambiguous conclusions about structural changes in biomolecules.
