Determination of a unique solution to parallel proton transfer reactions using the genetic algorithm.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Kinetic analysis of the dynamics as measured in multiequilibria systems is readily attained by curve-fitting methodologies, a treatment that can accurately retrace the shape of the measured signal. Still, these reconstructions are not related to the detailed mechanism of the process. In this study we subjected multiple proton transfer reactions to rigorous kinetic analysis, which consists of solving a set of coupled-nonlinear differential rate equations. The manual analysis of such systems can be biased by the operator; thus the analysis calls for impartial corroboration. What is more, there is no assurance that such a complex system has a unique solution. In this study, we used the Genetic Algorithm to investigate whether the solution of the system will converge into a single global minimum in the multidimensional parameter space. The experimental system consisted of proton transfer between four proton-binding sites with seven independent adjustable parameters. The results of the search indicate that the solution is unique and all adjustable parameters converge into a single minimum in the multidimensional parameter space, thus corroborating the accuracy of the manual analysis.
