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

Thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1) is an important redox protein found in almost all prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, which has a highly conserved active site sequence: Trp-Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys. To investigate whether the Trp31 residue is essential for the antioxidant activity of human Trx-1 (hTrx-1), we mutated Trx-1 by replacing Trp31 with Ala31 (31Ala) or deleting Trp31 residue (31Del). We introduced 31Ala and 31Del mutations into prokaryotic cells for hTrx-1 protein expression, protein purification and evaluation of antioxidant activity. The results showed that neither the replacing mutation to Ala31 nor the deletion of Trp31 residue affected the efficient expression of hTrx-1 protein in prokaryotic cells, indicating that neither form of Trp31 mutation would disrupt the folded structure of the Trx-1 protein. Comparison of the antioxidant activity of purified hTrx-1 proteins of wild-type, 31Ala and 31Del forms revealed that both mutant forms significantly decreased the antioxidant capacity of hTrx-1. Further investigations on eukaryotic cells showed that H
