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

summaryThe protonation propensity of ionizable residues in proteins can change in response to changes in the local residue environment. The link between protein dynamics and pKa is particularly important in pH regulation of protein structure and function. Here, we introduce TrIPP (Trajectory Iterative pKa Predictor), a Python tool to track and analyze changes in the pKa of ionizable residues along Molecular Dynamics trajectories of proteins. We show how TrIPP can be used to identify residues with physiologically relevant variations in their predicted pKa values during the simulations and link them to changes in the local and global environment. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: TrIPP is available at https://github.com/fornililab/TrIPP.
