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.
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
Hsp90 is a dimeric molecular chaperone essential for the folding, stabilization, activation, and maturation of hundreds of client proteins, which are critical for cellular function. Co-chaperones, such as Aha1, play a key role in regulating the ATP-dependent Hsp90 client activation cycle by modulating Hsp90's ATPase activity and controlling progression through the cycle. Two highly conserved motifs in Aha1-the NxNNWHW and RKxK motifs-are known to regulate specific aspects of the Hsp90 ATPase cycle. In this study, we demonstrate that the K60 residue within the RKxK motif facilitates the structural organization of the NxNNWHW motif prior to ATP hydrolysis. Mutation of the K60 residue partially impairs the in vivo functionality of yeast Aha1. Additionally, we reveal that each individual residue within the NxNNWHW motif modulates the ATPase rate and apparent affinity for ATP of Hsp90. These findings provide new insights into how conserved regions of Aha-type co-chaperones influence Hsp90 kinetics and its regulation of client protein folding.
