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 betabellin target structure is a beta-sandwich protein consisting of two 32 residue beta-sheets packed against one another by interaction of their hydrophobic faces. The 32 residue chain of betabellin-15S (HSLTAKIpkLTFSIAphTYTCAV pkYTAKVSH, where p=DPro, k=DLys, and h=DHis) did not fold in water at pH 6.5. Air oxidation of betabellin-15S provided betabellin-15D, the 64 residue disulfide bridged two-chain molecule, which also remained unfolded in water at pH 6.5. By circular dichroic spectropolarimetry, the extent of beta structure observed for betabellin-15D increased with the pH and ionic strength of the solution and the betabellin-15D concentration. By electron microscopy, in 5.0 mM MOPS and 0.25 M NaCl at pH 6.9, betabellin-15D formed long narrow multimeric fibrils. A molecular model was constructed to show that the dimensions of these betabellin-15D fibrils are consistent with a single row of beta-sandwich molecules joined by multiple intersheet H-bonds.
