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

The fra locus of Salmonella enterica encodes five genes for metabolism of fructose-asparagine, an Amadori product formed by condensation of asparagine with glucose. In the last step of this pathway, the FraB deglycase cleaves 6-phospho-fructose-aspartate into glucose-6-phosphate and aspartate. In homology models, FraB forms a homodimer with two equivalent active sites located at the dimer interface. E214 and H230, two invariant residues essential for catalysis, project into each active site cleft from opposing subunits of the dimer. Here, we have determined six crystal structures of FraB, three of a variant containing an N-terminal His
