Exploring the central region of amylin and its analogs aggregation: the influence of metal ions and residue substitutions.
Article in Frontiers in chemistry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Human amylin (hIAPP) is found in the form of amyloid deposits within the pancreatic cells of nearly all patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, rat amylin (rIAPP) and pramlintide - hIAPP analogs - are both non-toxic and non-amyloidogenic. Their primary sequences exhibit only slight variations in a few amino acid residues, primarily concentrated in the central region, spanning residues 20 to 29. This inspired us to study this fragment and investigate the impact on the aggregation properties of substituting residues within the central region of amylin and its analogs. Six fragments derived from amylin have undergone comprehensive testing against various metal ions by implementing a range of analytical techniques, including Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Thioflavin T (ThT) assays, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), and cytotoxicity assays. These methodologies serve to provide a thorough understanding of how the substitutions and interactions with metal ions impact the aggregation behavior of amylin and its analogs.
