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

The effect of ion binding in the selectivity filter of the potassium channel KcsA is investigated by combining amide I Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy with structure-based spectral modeling. Experimental difference IR spectra between K(+)-bound KcsA and Na(+)-bound KcsA are in good qualitative agreement with spectra modeled from structural ensembles generated from molecular dynamics simulations. The molecular origins of the vibrational modes contributing to differences in these spectra are determined not only from structural differences in the selectivity filter but also from the pore helices surrounding this region. Furthermore, the coordination of K(+) or Na(+) to carbonyls in the selectivity filter effectively decouples the vibrations of those carbonyls from the rest of the protein, creating local probes of the electrostatic environment. The results suggest that it is necessary to include the influence of the surrounding helices in discussing selectivity and transport in KcsA and, on a more general level, that IR spectroscopy offers a nonperturbative route to studying the structure and dynamics of ion channels.
