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

Biological membranes display distinct domains that organize membrane proteins and signaling molecules to facilitate efficient and reliable signaling. The organization of rhodopsin, a G protein-coupled receptor, in native rod outer segment disc membranes was investigated by atomic force microscopy. Atomic force microscopy revealed that rhodopsin is arranged into domains of variable size, which we refer to herein as nanodomains, in native membranes. Quantitative analysis of 150 disc membranes revealed that the physical properties of nanodomains are conserved in humans and mice and that the properties of individual disc membranes can be variable. Examining the variable properties of disc membranes revealed some of the factors contributing to the size of rod outer segment discs and the formation of nanodomains in the membrane. The diameter of rod outer segment discs was dependent on the number of rhodopsin molecules incorporated into the membrane but independent of the spatial density of rhodopsin. The number of nanodomains present in a single disc was also dependent on the number of rhodopsin molecules incorporated into the membrane. The size of the nanodomains was largely independent of the number or spatial density of rhodopsin in the membrane.
