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

Structural models of membrane proteins can be refined with sets of multiple orientation constraints derived from structural NMR studies of specifically labeled amino acids. The magic angle oriented sample spinning (MAOSS) NMR approach was used to determine a set of orientational constraints in bacteriorhodopsin (bR) in the purple membrane (PM). This method combines the benefits of magic angle spinning (MAS), i.e., improved sensitivity and resolution, with the ability to measure the orientation of anisotropic interactions, which provide important structural information. The nine methionine residues in bacteriorhodopsin were isotopically (15)N labeled and spectra simplified by deuterium exchange before cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) experiments. The orientation of the principal axes of the (15)N chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) tensors was determined with respect to the membrane normal for five of six residual resonances by analysis of relative spinning sideband intensities. The applicability of this approach to large proteins embedded in a membrane environment is discussed in light of these results.
