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

backgroundThe most fatal form of Visceral leishmaniasis or

objectiveThis work investigates the acidic pH-induced unfolding and aggregation of a recombinant Rab2 protein from

methodsThe acidic unfolding of

resultsrLdRab2 was modelled to be a Rab2 isoform with loose globular packing. The acidinduced unfolding of the protein is a plausible non-two-state process. At pH 2.0, a partially folded intermediate (PFI) state characterised by ~ 30% structural loss and exposed hydrophobic core was found to accumulate. The PFI state slowly converted into well-developed protofibrils at high protein concentrations demonstrating its amyloidogenic nature. The native state of the protein was also observed to be aggregation-prone at high protein concentrations. However, it formed amorphous aggregation instead of fibrils.
