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

Two 40 ns molecular dynamics simulations of a palmitoyl-oleoyl phosphatidylserine (POPS) lipid bilayer in the liquid crystalline phase with Na(+) counterions and NaCl were carried out to investigate the structure of the negatively charged lipid bilayer and the effect of salt (NaCl) on the lipid bilayer structure. Na(+) ions were found to penetrate deep into the ester region of the water/lipid interface of the bilayer. Interaction of the Na(+) ions with the lipid bilayer is accompanied by a loss of water molecules around the ion and a simultaneous increase in the number of ester carbonyl oxygen atoms binding the ion, which define an octahedral and square pyramidal geometry. The amine group of the lipid molecule is involved in the formation of inter- and intramolecular hydrogen bonds with the carboxylate and the phosphodiester groups of the lipid molecule. The area per lipid of the POPS bilayer is unaffected by the presence of 0.15M NaCl. There is a small increase in the order parameter of carbon atoms in the beginning of the alkyl chain in the presence of NaCl. This is due to a greater number of Na(+) ions being coordinated by the ester carbonyl oxygen atoms in the water/lipid interface region of the POPS bilayer.
