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

TDP-43, a nucleocytoplasmic shuttle protein consisting of 414 residues, forms self-association in the nucleus for physiological gene regulation, while aggregation into amyloid (consisting of aberrant β-sheets) in the cytoplasm causes neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Post-translational phosphorylation of TDP-43 alters the self-association properties, which affects both the physiological function in the nucleus and the amyloidogenic potential in the cytoplasm, thereby impacting upon disease progression. However, insight into the role of per-residue phosphorylation in the self-association remains limited due to the difficulty in obtaining site-specifically phosphorylated TDP-43. Here, we demonstrate semi-synthesis of full-length TDP-43 that is uniformly phosphorylated at the 48th serine residue (designated as TDP
