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

mJuniper is a recently developed monomeric cyan fluorescent protein (CFP) optimized for bacterial imaging, distinguished by the fastest maturation kinetics recorded for a CFP. mJuniper shows significant promise for time-lapse microscopy, but was used here to improve the solubility of a target protein. Here, we report the high-resolution X-ray structure of mJuniper, obtained serendipitously during an attempted structural characterization of CagG, an essential component of the Helicobacter pylori Cag type IV secretion system. The structure reveals a classical β-barrel scaffold, as well as a chromophore with two rotameric states, resulting from specific radiation damage occurring in its vicinity.
