Roles of conserved tryptophans in trimerization of HIV-1 membrane-proximal external regions: Implications for virucidal design via alchemical free-energy molecular simulations.
Article in Proteins, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The Dual-Action Virolytic Entry Inhibitors, or "DAVEI's," are a class of recombinant fusions of a lectin, a linker polypeptide, and a 15-residue fragment from the membrane-proximal external region (MPER) of HIV-1 gp41. DAVEI's trigger rupture of HIV-1 virions, and the interaction site between DAVEI MPER and HIV-1 lies in the gp41 component of the envelope glycoprotein Env. Here, we explore the hypothesis that DAVEI MPER engages Env gp41 in a mode structurally similar to a crystallographic MPER trimer. We used alchemical free-energy perturbation to assess the thermodynamic roles of each of the four conserved tryptophan residues on each protomer of MPER
