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 studied the interaction between synthetic amphipathic peptides and model membranes by solid-state NMR and infrared spectroscopies. Peptides with 14 and 21 amino acids composed of leucines and phenylalanines modified by the addition of crown ethers were synthesized. The 14-mer and 21-mer peptides both possess a helical amphipathic structure. To shed light on their membrane interaction, (31)P and (2)H solid-state NMR experiments were performed on both peptides in interaction with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles in the absence and presence of cholesterol, dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol vesicles, and oriented bicelles. (31)P NMR experiments on multilamellar vesicles reveal that the dynamics and/or orientation of the polar headgroups are weakly yet markedly affected by the presence of the peptides, whereas (31)P NMR experiments on bicelles indicate no significant changes in the morphology and orientation of the bicelles. On the other hand, (2)H NMR experiments on vesicles reveal that the acyl chain order is affected differently depending on the membrane lipidic composition and on the peptide hydrophobic length. Finally, infrared spectroscopy was used to study the interfacial region of the bilayer. Based on these studies, mechanisms of membrane perturbation are proposed for the 14-mer and 21-mer peptides in interaction with model membranes depending on the bilayer composition and peptide length.
