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 three-dimensional structures of the copper-containing enzymes ascorbate oxidase, ceruloplasmin, and nitrite reductase, comprised of multiple domains with a cupredoxin fold, are consistent with having evolved from a common ancestor. The presence or absence of copper sites has complicated ascertaining the structural and evolutionary relationship among these and related proteins. Simultaneous structural superposition of the enzyme domains and their known cupredoxin relatives shows clearly that there are at least six cupredoxin classes, and that the evolution of the conserved core of these domains is independent of the presence or absence of copper sites. Relationships among the variable loops in these structures show that the two-domain ancestor of the blue oxidases contained a trinuclear-copper interface but could not have functioned in a monomeric state. Comparison of the sequence of the copper-containing, iron-regulating protein. Ferrous transport (Fet3) from yeast to the structurally defined core and loop residues of the cupredoxins suggests specific residues that could be involved in the ferroxidase activity of Fet3.
