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 formation of amyloid-like structures is commonly linked to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. However, proteins can form amyloid-like structures in non-pathological contexts, referred to as functional amyloids. We review the current knowledge on the evolutionary and ecological significance of the presence of proteins presenting amyloid-like structures in adhesive secretions (both permanent and non-permanent) produced by several marine organisms; in addition, we analyze the molecular and structural properties that make them well suited for this task and their possible biomimetic and industrial applications.
