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

In this letter, the pull-off forces of adsorbed films of four Bap1-inspired peptides in various solvents were investigated on negatively charged mica substrates using the surface forces apparatus (SFA), complemented with dynamic light scattering (DLS) for characterizing the aggregation behavior of peptides in solution. Bap1-inspired peptides consisted of the 57 amino acid wild-type sequence (WT); a scrambled version of the WT used to investigate the impact of the primary amino acid sequence in pull-off forces (Scr); a ten amino acid sequence rich in hydrophobic content (CP) of the WT sequence, and an eight amino acid sequence (Sh1) that corresponds to the pseudo-repeating sequence in the 57 AA. SFA results showed remarkable pull-off forces for CP, particularly in the presence of salts: measured pull-off forces were 26.0 ± 7.0 mN/m for no dwell-time and up to 42.0 ± 8.8 mN/m when surfaces were left in contact for 30 minutes. DLS observations indicate that salts favor large peptide aggregation for all constructs (
