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

β-Conglycinin was conjugated with carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) by using water-soluble carbodiimide to improve its function. Two kinds of CMC differing in average molecular weight (about 1 kDa and 90 kDa) were used to investigate the relationship between molecular weight of conjugated saccharide and saccharide content in the conjugates and degree of functional changes in β-conglycinin. The β-conglycinin-CMC conjugates were purified by dialysis using a dialysis membrane whose molecular weight cutoff is 100 kDa. Composition of the β-conglycinin-low molecular weight (LMW) CMC and β-conglycinin-high molecular weight (HMW) CMC was β-conglycinin: CMC = 1:3.3 and 1:2.1 (weight ratio) respectively which was confirmed by BCA method and phenol sulfuric acid method. Conjugation was confirmed by SDS-PAGE with CBB. Solubility of β-conglycinin in the range of pH4.0-7.0 was much improved by conjugation with both LMW and HMW CMC. Emulsifying property of β-conglycinin at pH5.0 and pH7.0 was much improved by conjugation with HMW CMC and greater improvement was achieved by conjugation with LMW CMC. Immunogenicity of β-conglycinin was decreased by conjugation with LMW CMC.
