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

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a family of enzymes involved in the cellular detoxification of xenotoxins. Cytosolic GSTs have been grouped into four evolutionary classes for which there are representative crystal structures of three of them. Here we report the first crystal structure of a theta-class GST. So far, all available GST crystal structures suggest that a strictly conserved tyrosine near the N-terminus plays a critical role in the reaction mechanism and such a role has been convincingly demonstrated by site-directed mutagenesis. Surprisingly, the equivalent residue in the theta-class structure is not in the active site, but its role appears to have been replaced by either a nearby serine or by another tyrosine residue located in the C-terminal domain of the enzyme.
