Stimulation of Nipah Fusion: Small Intradomain Changes Trigger Extensive Interdomain Rearrangements.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Nipah is an emerging paramyxovirus that is of serious concern to human health. It invades host cells using two of its membrane proteins-G and F. G binds to host ephrins and this stimulates G to activate F. Upon activation, F mediates virus-host membrane fusion. Here we focus on mechanisms that underlie the stimulation of G by ephrins. Experiments show that G interacts with ephrin and F through separate sites located on two different domains, the receptor binding domain (RBD) and the F activation domain (FAD). No models explain this allosteric coupling. In fact, the analogous mechanisms in other paramyxoviruses also remain undetermined. The structural organization of G is such that allosteric coupling must involve at least one of the two interfaces-the RBD-FAD interface and/or the RBD-RBD interface. Here we examine using molecular dynamics the effect of ephrin binding on the RBD-RBD interface. We find that despite inducing small changes in individual RBDs, ephrin reorients the RBD-RBD interface extensively, and in a manner that will enhance solvent exposure of the FAD. While this finding supports a proposed model of G stimulation, we also find from additional simulations that ephrin induces a similar RBD-RBD reorientation in a stimulation-deficient G mutant, V
