Cubic phases in membrane lipids.
Review in European biophysics journal : EBJ, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
On the basis of data obtained by time-resolved X-ray diffraction, we consider in the present article the occurrence and formation pathways of inverted bicontinuous cubic phases, or bilayer cubic phases, Q (II)(B) , in diluted dispersions of lipids representing major biomembrane lipid classes [phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs), mixtures of PEs and phosphatidylcholines (PCs) with other lipids, glycolipids]. We show that Q (II)(B) formation proceeds much more easily upon cooling from the H(II) phase than upon heating or isothermal conversion from the L(α) phase, thus identifying an indirect but faster route for Q (II)(B) phase induction in lipids. The data collected consistently show that the ability to convert into cubic phase upon temperature cycling appears to be a general property of all lipids exhibiting an L(α) ↔ H(II) phase transition. Admixtures of charged phospholipids, both anionic and cationic, strongly facilitate Q (II)(B) formation in PEs. Their effect may be attributed to increased electrostatic repulsion between the lipid bilayers that reduces the unbinding energy and facilitates the dissipation of the L(α) phase required for its conversion into bilayer cubic phase.
