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

Single molecule imaging and manipulation are powerful tools in describing the operations of molecular machines like molecular motors. The single molecule measurements allow a dynamic behaviour of individual biomolecules to be measured. In this paper, we describe how we have developed single molecule measurements to understand the mechanism of molecular motors. The step movement of molecular motors associated with a single cycle of ATP hydrolysis has been identified. The single molecule measurements that have sensitivity to monitor thermal fluctuation have revealed that thermal Brownian motion is involved in the step movement of molecular motors. Several mechanisms have been suggested in different motors to bias random thermal motion to directional movement.
