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

To obtain a structural model of a macromolecular assembly by single-particle EM, a large number of particle images need to be collected, aligned, clustered, averaged, and finally assembled via reconstruction into a 3D density map. This process is limited by the number and quality of the particle images, the accuracy of the initial model, and the compositional and conformational heterogeneity. Here, we describe a structure determination method that avoids the reconstruction procedure. The atomic structures of the individual complex components are assembled by optimizing a match against 2D EM class-average images, an excluded volume criterion, geometric complementarity, and optional restraints from proteomics and chemical cross-linking experiments. The optimization relies on a simulated annealing Monte Carlo search and a divide-and-conquer message-passing algorithm. Using simulated and experimentally determined EM class averages for 12 and 4 protein assemblies, respectively, we show that a few class averages can indeed result in accurate models for complexes of as many as five subunits. Thus, integrative structural biology can now benefit from the relative ease with which the EM class averages are determined.
