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

We revisit some aspects of the interpretation of dynamic force spectroscopy experiments. The standard theory predicts that the typical unbinding force f* is linearly proportional to the logarithm of the loading rate r when a single energy barrier controls the unbinding process. For a more complex situation of N barriers, it predicts at most N linear segments for the f* vs. log(r) curve, each segment characterizing a different barrier. Here we extend this existing picture using a refined approximation, provide a more general analytical formula, and show that in principle up to N(N + 1) / 2 segments can show up experimentally. As a consequence, the determination of the positions and even the number of the energy barriers from the experimental data can be ambiguous. A further possible consequence of a multiple-barrier landscape is a bimodal or multimodal distribution of the unbinding force at certain loading rates, a feature recently observed experimentally.
