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

Rhodopsin has been intensively characterized in its role as a visual pigment and G protein-coupled receptor responsible for dim-light vision. We recently discovered that it also functions as an ATP-independent phospholipid scramblase: when reconstituted into large unilamellar vesicles, rhodopsin accelerates the normally sluggish transbilayer translocation of common phospholipids by more than 1000-fold, to rates in excess of 10 000 phospholipids transported per rhodopsin per second. Here we summarize the work leading to this discovery and speculate on the mechanism by which rhodopsin scrambles phospholipids. We also present a hypothesis that rhodopsin's scramblase activity is necessary for the function of the ABC transporter ABCA4 that is responsible for mitigating the toxic accumulation of 11-cis-retinal and bis-retinoids in the retina.
