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

purposeTo determine the different conformations of the acyloxyalkoxy-linked cyclic prodrug 1 of the model hexapeptide 2 in solution and to investigate the relationship between these solution conformations and the cellular permeability characteristics of this prodrug.

methodsTwo-dimensional Homonuclear Hartmann-Hahn spectroscopy, Rotating-Frame Overhouser effect spectroscopy, circular dichroism and molecular dynamics simulations were used to find the solution conformers of cyclic prodrug 1.

resultsOur spectroscopic findings suggest that cyclic prodrug 1 exhibits a major and a minor conformer in solution. The major conformer appears to have a well-defined secondary structure, which involves a beta-turn and 4-->1 intramolecular hydrogen bond, creating a compact structure with a reduced average hydrodynamic radius compared to the model hexapeptide 2.

conclusionsThe increased ability of cyclic prodrug 1 to permeate membranes compared to the model hexapeptide 2 could be due to reduction in the average hydrodynamic radius of the molecule facilitating paracellular flux and/or the reduction in the hydrogen bonding potential facilitating transcellular flux.
