Structure and dynamics of the influenza A M2 channel: a comparison of three structures.
Article in Journal of molecular modeling, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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 M2 protein is an essential component of the Influenza virus' infectivity cycle. It is a homo-tetrameric bundle forming a pH-gated H(+) channel. The structure of M2 was solved by three different groups, using different techniques, protein sequences and pH environment. For example, solid-state NMR spectroscopy was used on a protein in lipid bilayers, while X-ray crystallography and solution NMR spectroscopy were applied on a protein in detergent micelles. The resulting structures from the above efforts are rather distinct. Herein, we examine the different structures under uniform conditions such as a lipid bilayer and specified protonation state. We employ extensive molecular dynamics simulations, in several protonation states, representing both closed and open forms of the channel. Exploring the properties of each of these structures has shown that the X-ray structure is more stable than the other structures according to various criteria, although its water conductance and water-wire formation do not correlate to the protonation state of the channel.
