Low pH modulates the macroorganization and thermal stability of PSII supercomplexes in grana membranes.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Protonation of the lumen-exposed residues of some photosynthetic complexes in the grana membranes occurs under conditions of high light intensity and triggers a major photoprotection mechanism known as energy dependent nonphotochemical quenching. We have studied the role of protonation in the structural reorganization and thermal stability of isolated grana membranes. The macroorganization of granal membrane fragments in protonated and partly deprotonated state has been mapped by means of atomic force microscopy. The protonation of the photosynthetic complexes has been found to induce large-scale structural remodeling of grana membranes-formation of extensive domains of the major light-harvesting complex of photosystem II and clustering of trimmed photosystem II supercomplexes, thinning of the membrane, and reduction of its size. These events are accompanied by pronounced thermal destabilization of the photosynthetic complexes, as evidenced by circular dichroism spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Our data reveal a detailed nanoscopic picture of the initial steps of nonphotochemical quenching.
