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 examined the role of molecular shape in determining the patterns of low-frequency deformational motions of biological macromolecules. The low-frequency subspace of eigenvectors in normal mode analysis was found to be robustly similar upon randomization of the Hessian matrix elements as long as the structure of the matrix is maintained, which indicates that the global shape of molecules plays a more dominant role in determining the highly anisotropic low-frequency motions than the absolute values of stiffness and directionality of local interactions. The results provided a quantitative foundation for the validity of elastic normal mode analysis.
