Characterization of Protein Nanocrystals Based on the Reversibility of Crystallization.

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
A new approach is described to screen for protein nanocrystals based on the reversibility of crystallization. Methods to characterize nanocrystals are in strong need to facilitate sample preparation for serial femtosecond X-ray nanocrystallography (SFX). SFX enables protein structure determination by collecting X-ray diffraction from nano- and microcrystals using a free electron laser. This technique is especially valuable for challenging proteins as for example membrane proteins and is in general a powerful method to overcome the radiation damage problem and to perform time-resolved structure analysis. Nanocrystal growth cannot be monitored with common methods used in protein crystallography, as the resolution of bright field microscopy is not sufficient. A high-performance method to screen for nanocrystals is second order nonlinear imaging of chiral crystals (SONICC). However, the high cost prevents its use in every laboratory, and some protein nanocrystals may be "invisible" to SONICC. In this work using a crystallization robot and a common imaging system precipitation comprised of nanocrystals and precipitation caused by aggregated protein can be distinguished.
