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

The filamentous bacteriophage (Inovirus) strain Ff (fd, f1, M13) is widely used in molecular biophysics as a simple model system. A low resolution molecular model of the fd protein coat has been reported, derived from iterative helical real space reconstruction of cryo-electron micrographs (cryoEM). This model is significantly different from the model previously derived from X-ray fibre diffraction and solid-state NMR. We show that the cryoEM model agrees neither with solid-state NMR data nor with X-ray fibre diffraction data of fd, and has some puzzling structural features, for instance nanometre holes through the protein coat. We refine the cryoEM model against the X-ray data, and find that the model after refinement closely approximates the model derived directly from X-ray fibre diffraction and solid-state NMR data. We suggest possible reasons for the differences between the models derived from cryoEM and X-ray diffraction.
