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 tetrameric M2 protein from influenza A conducts protons into the virus upon acid activation of its His37 tetrad and is a proven drug target. Here, in studies of full-length M2 protein solubilized in native-like liquid-crystalline lipid bilayers, a pH titration monitored by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance revealed a clustering of the first three His37 pKas (6.3, 6.3, and 5.5). When the +2 state of the tetrad accepts a third proton from the externally exposed portion of the channel pore and releases a proton to the internally exposed pore, successful proton conductance is achieved, but more frequently the tetrad accepts and returns the proton to the externally exposed pore, resulting in a futile cycle. Both dynamics and conformational heterogeneity of the His37 tetrad featuring short hydrogen bonds between imidazolium-imidazole pairs are characterized, and the heterogeneity appears to reflect oligomeric helix packing and the extent of transmembrane helical bending around Gly34.
