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 interaction of caldesmon domains with tropomyosin has been studied using x-ray crystallography and an optical biosensor. Only whole caldesmon and the carboxyl-terminal domain of caldesmon (CaD-4, chicken gizzard residues 597-756) bound to tropomyosin with greater than millimolar affinity at 100 and 150 microM salt. Under these conditions the affinities of whole caldesmon and CaD-4 were both in the micromolar range. Data from the x-ray studies showed that whole caldesmon bound to tropomyosin in several places, with the region of tightest interaction being at tropomyosin residues 70-100 and/or 230-260. Studies with CaD-4 revealed that this region corresponded to the strong binding site seen with whole caldesmon. Weaker association of other regions of caldesmon to tropomyosin residues 180-210 and 5-50 was also observed. The results suggest that the carboxyl-terminus of caldesmon binds tightly to tropomyosin and that other regions of caldesmon may interact with tropomyosin tightly only when they are held close to tropomyosin by the carboxyl-terminal domain. Four models are presented to show the possible interactions of caldesmon with tropomyosin.
