The inhibition of fibril formation of lysozyme by sucrose and trehalose.
Article in RSC advances, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
The two disaccharides, trehalose and sucrose, have been compared in many studies due to their structural similarity. Both possess the ability to stabilise and reduce aggregation of proteins. Trehalose has also been shown to inhibit the formation of highly structured protein aggregates called amyloid fibrils. This study aims to compare how the thermal stability of the protein lysozyme at low pH (2.0 and 3.5) is affected by the presence of the two disaccharides. We also address the anti-aggregating properties of the disaccharides and their inhibitory effects on fibril formation. Differential scanning calorimetry confirms that the thermal stability of lysozyme is increased by the presence of trehalose or sucrose. The effect is slightly larger for sucrose. The inhibiting effects on protein aggregation are investigated using small-angle X-ray scattering which shows that the two-component system consisting of lysozyme and water (Lys/H
