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

For over a billion years, the central dogma of biology has been limited largely to 20 canonical amino acids with relatively simple functionalities. The ability to rationally add new building blocks to the genetic code has enabled the site-specific incorporation of hundreds of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) with novel properties into proteins in living organisms. Recent technological advances have enabled high level mammalian expression of proteins containing ncAAs, the use of unique codons to direct ncAA incorporation, extension of this methodology to a range of eukaryotic organisms, and the ability to encode building blocks beyond α-amino acids. These ncAAs have been used to study and control proteins in their native cellular context and to engineer enzymes and biotherapeutics with improved or novel properties. Herein we discuss recent developments in the field and potential future research directions.
