Calibration of rotation axes for multi-axis goniometers in macromolecular crystallography.
Article in Journal of applied crystallography, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 installation of multi-axis goniometers such as the ESRF/EMBL miniKappa goniometer system has allowed the increased use of sample reorientation in macromolecular crystallography. Old and newly appearing data collection methods require precision and accuracy in crystal reorientation. The proper use of such multi-axis systems has necessitated the development of rapid and easy to perform methods for establishing and evaluating device calibration. A new diffraction-based method meeting these criteria has been developed for the calibration of the motors responsible for rotational motion. This method takes advantage of crystal symmetry by comparing the orientations of a sample rotated about a given axis and checking that the magnitude of the real rotation fits the calculated angle between these two orientations. Hence, the accuracy and precision of rotational motion can be assessed. This rotation calibration procedure has been performed on several beamlines at the ESRF and other synchrotrons. Some resulting data are presented here for reference.
