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

introductionL-asparaginase (also known as L-ASNase) is a crucial therapeutic enzyme that is widely used in treatment of ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia) as a chemotherapeutic drug. Besides, this enzyme is used in the food industry as a food processing reagent to reduce the content of acrylamide in addition to the clinical industry. The improvement of activity and kinetic parameters of the L-ASNase enzyme may lead to higher efficiency resulting in practical achievement. In order to achieve this goal, we chosen glycine residue in position 88 as a potential mutation with advantageous outcomes.

methodIn this study, firstly to find the appropriate mutation on glycine 88, various in silico analyses, such as MD simulation and molecular docking, were carried out. Then, the rational design was adopted as the best strategy for molecular modifications of the enzyme to improve its enzymatic properties.

resultOur in silico findings show that the four mutations G88Q, G88L, G88K, and G88A may be able to increase L-ASNase's asparaginase activity. The catalytic efficiency of each enzyme (k

conclusionIn silico analyses and laboratory experiments demonstrated that the G88Q mutation rather than other mutation (G88L, G88K, and G88A) could improve the kinetics of L-ASNase.
