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

Aspergillus flavipes L-methionine γ-lyase (MGL) has been authenticated as a powerful anticancer agent towards various solid tumors, however, the catalytic efficiency and stability of this enzyme remains the main challenge for its further in vivo applications. Thus, the objective of this study was to enhance the catalytic efficiency, structural stability of A. flavipes MGL, in addition to boost their anticancer activity, via conjugation with β-cyclodextrin. The purified A. flavipes MGL was (38.1 μmol/mg/min) was conjugated with β-cyclodextrin, with immobilization yield 80%. The conjugation process of MGL with β-cyclodextrin was verified from the FTIR analysis, molecular docking analysis, ensuring the covalent conjugation process via the hydrogen, and hydrophobic interactions with the cyclodextrin hydroxyl groups and MGL surface amino acids residues. The free and CD-MGL have the same optimum reaction temperature 37 °C, reaction pH 7.5 and pH stability pH 6.5-8.0. The CD-MGL conjugates had a significant stability to proteinase K and trypsin digestion. The affinity of CD-MGL was increased by ~ 2 folds to L-methionine (K
