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

Background: The small family of vitamin K-dependent proteins are characterized by posttranslational modification of specific glutamic acid residues to yield γ-carboxyglutamic acid (Gla). Gla residues give these proteins calcium ion-binding properties, which are essential for a number of coagulation factors and mineralization processes. Biophysical characteristics of Gla are, however, incomplete, hindering molecular dynamics simulations and protein structure predictions. Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the general biophysical characteristics (p Methods: Residue-based p Results: Carboxylic acid groups present on Gla residues have 2 different p Conclusion: Vitamin K-dependent proteins present Gla residues in a different manner but benefit from cooperative calcium ion binding. Experimentally determined p
