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

A thermodynamic model is used to investigate the conditions under which clathrin triskelions form polyhedral baskets. The analysis, which is similar to classical methods used to study micelle formation, relates clathrin basket energetics to system parameters linked to triskelial rigidity, the natural curvature of an isolated triskelion, and interactions between triskelial legs in the assembled polyhedra. Mathematical theory predicts that a minimal ("critical") clathrin concentration, C(C), needs to be surpassed in order for basket polymerization to occur, and indicates how C(C), and the amount of polymerized material, depend on the chosen parameters. Analytical expressions are obtained to indicate how changes in the parameters affect the sizes of the polyhedra which arise when the total clathrin concentration exceeds C(C). A continuum analytic approximation then is used to produce numerical results that illustrate the derived dependences.
