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

We utilized epifluorescence microscopy to investigate the morphological changes in labeled lipid bilayers supported on quartz surfaces (SLBs) induced by the interaction of cationic antimicrobial peptides with the lipid membranes. The SLBs were prepared from 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol (POPG), 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (POPE) and mixtures thereof as well as from Escherichia coli lipid extract. We succeeded in the preparation of POPG and POPG-rich SLBs without the necessity to use fusogenic agents such as calcium by using the Langmuir-Blodgett/Langmuir-Schaefer transfer method. The adsorption of the peptides to the SLBs was initially driven by electrostatic interactions with the PG headgroups and led to the formation of lipid protrusions bulging out from the lipid layer facing the bulk, originating particularly from domain boundaries and membrane defects. The shape, size, and frequency of the lipid protrusions are mainly controlled by the peptide macroscopic properties and the membrane composition. A restructuring of the lipid protrusions into other structures can also occur over time.
