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 recently published procedures describing the isolation of absolute infrared spectra for the intermediates of the bacteriorhodopsin (BR) photocycle and from these, obtaining transitional difference spectra between consecutive intermediates. In that work, we concentrated mainly on proton-binding centers and the route of proton transport across the membrane. In the current study, we used isolated spectra for the amide I, amide II, and amide III envelopes to obtain quantitative information on the extent of conformational change accompanying each transition in the photocycle. Our main finding was that most of the conformational changes occur in the conversion of the M(F) intermediate to N. In our earlier publication, a new proton acceptor, absorbing at 1650 cm(-1) was identified, which appeared to accept a proton from Asp96COOH during the transformation of BR† to L. Below, we present evidence that supports this interpretation and propose a possible role for this new component.
