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

Determining membrane protein quaternary structure is extremely challenging, especially in live cell membranes. We measured the oligomerization of opsin, a prototypical G protein-coupled receptor with pulsed-interleaved excitation fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy (PIE-FCCS). Individual cell measurements revealed that opsin is predominantly organized into dimeric clusters. At low concentrations, we observed that the population of oligomers increased linearly with the square of the individual monomer populations. This finding supports a monomer-dimer equilibrium and provides an experimental measurement of the equilibrium constant.
