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

Protein molecules are not static but are in varying degrees of motion. Of course, the breadth of structural arrangements in an ensemble will vary tremendously. Some proteins are like 'rocks' and are very tightly constrained in terms of deviations of their coordinates from their averages. Others are 'writhing snakes', with little recognized persistent structure, and then there is everything in between. Through the work of many, there is an increasing awareness of the role of dynamics in the biological function of proteins, and new computational and experimental methods are allowing us to make these connections. A personal perspective on the state of affairs is offered with examples primarily from the author's own work.
