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

Reaction dynamics of a chloride ion pump protein, halorhodopsin (HR), from Natronomonas pharaonis (N. pharaonis) (NpHR) was studied by the pulsed-laser-induced transient grating (TG) method. A detailed investigation of the TG signal revealed that there is a spectrally silent diffusion process besides the absorption-observable reaction dynamics. We interpreted these dynamics in terms of release, diffusion, and uptake of the Cl(-) ion. From a quantitative global analysis of the signals at various grating wavenumbers, it was concluded that the release of the Cl(-) ion is associated with the L2 --> (L2 (or N) <==> O) process, and uptake of Cl(-) occurs with the (L2 (or N) <==> O) -->NpHR' process. The diffusion coefficient of NpHR solubilized in a detergent did not change during the cyclic reaction. This result contrasts the behavior of many photosensor proteins and implies that the change in the H-bond network from intra- to intermolecular is not significant for the activity of this protein pump.
