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

Proteases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolytic degradation of other proteins into peptides or amino acids through the digestion of the peptide bond. Promiscuous proteases that target a wide range of proteins are distinguished from specific proteases that have a narrow range of substrates. In terms of activity, endoproteases cleave their substrates at specific residues within the target proteins, whereas exoproteases cleave from one extremity and may have processive activities. Proteases are therefore very useful tools to study proteins, notably their structure or conformation. In addition, proteases can be used to probe the topology of bacterial membrane proteins. Here, we describe limited protease accessibility assays to define inner membrane protein topology and conformational changes based on digestion profiles.
