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

Mutations of G12 in KRAS have been involved in different cancers. Multiple replica-Gaussian accelerated molecular dynamics (MR-GaMD) simulations are applied to investigate conformational changes of the switch domains caused by G12C, G12D and G12R. Free energy landscapes suggest that G12C, G12D and G12R induce more energetic states compared to the GTP-bound WT KRAS and make the conformations of the switch domains more disordered, which disturbs bindings of KRAS to effectors. Dynamics analyses based on MR-GaMD trajectory show that G12C, G12D and G12R not only change structural flexibility of the switch domains but also affect their motion behavior, indicating that these three mutations can be used to tune the activity of KRAS. The analyses of interaction networks verify that the instability in interactions of the GTP with the switch SⅠ plays an important role in the high disorder states of the switch domain. This work is expected to provide useful information for deeply understanding the function of KRAS.
