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

Amyloid aggregation, which disrupts protein homeostasis, is a common pathological event occurring in human neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). Numerous evidences have shown that the structural diversity, so-called polymorphism, is decisive to the amyloid pathology and is closely associated with the onset, progression, and phenotype of ND. But how could one protein form so many stable structures? Recently, atomic structural evidence has been rapidly mounting to depict the involvement of chemical modifications in the amyloid fibril formation. In this Perspective, we aim to present a hierarchical regulation of chemical modifications including covalent post-translational modifications (PTMs) and noncovalent cofactor binding in governing the polymorphic amyloid formation, based mainly on the latest α-synuclein and Tau fibril structures. We hope to emphasize the determinant role of chemical modifications in amyloid assembly and pathology and to evoke chemical biological approaches to lead the fundamental and therapeutic research on protein amyloid state and the associated NDs.
