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

backgroundNeurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) are one of the most common pathological characteristics of Alzheimer's disease. The NFTs are mainly composed of hyperphosphorylated microtubule-associated tau. Thus, recombinant tau is urgently required for the study of its fibrillogenesis and its associated cytotoxicity. METHODS AND

resultsHeterologous expression, purification, and fibrillation of the microtubule-binding domain (MBD) of tau (tauMBD) were performed. The tauMBD was heterologously expressed in E. coli. Ni-chelating affinity chromatography was then performed to purify the target protein. Thereafter, tauMBD was systematically identified using the SDS-PAGE, western blot and MALDI-TOF MS methods. The aggregation propensity of the tauMBD was explored by both the thioflavin T fluorescence and atomic force microscopy experiments.

conclusionsThe final yield of the recombinant tauMBD was ~ 20 mg L
