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

Lipid-water interfaces are dielectric transition regions. Their local organizations are highly sophisticated. They are sensitive to electric field with dramatic consequences on the global membrane organization and function. The importance of using local values of parameters (e.g. dielectric constant) near water-solution interface due to hydration and different electrostatic effects is often neglected in the description of cellular functions. Structural changes in the lipid layer are induced by minute changes in the electric properties of the interface. They bring alterations in the structure and oligomerization of membrane proteins.
