Structural roles of lipid molecules in the assembly of plant PSII-LHCII supercomplex.
Article in Biophysics reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
In plants, photosystem II (PSII) associates with light-harvesting complexes II (LHCII) to form PSII-LHCII supercomplexes. They are multi-subunit supramolecular systems embedded in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast, functioning as energy-converting and water-splitting machinery powered by light energy. The high-resolution structure of a PSII-LHCII supercomplex, previously solved through cryo-electron microscopy, revealed 34 well-defined lipid molecules per monomer of the homodimeric system. Here we characterize the distribution of lipid-binding sites in plant PSII-LHCII supercomplex and summarize their arrangement pattern within and across the membrane. These lipid molecules have crucial roles in stabilizing the oligomerization interfaces of plant PSII dimer and LHCII trimer. Moreover, they also mediate the interactions among PSII core subunits and contribute to the assembly between peripheral antenna complexes and PSII core. The detailed information of lipid-binding sites within PSII-LHCII supercomplex may serve as a framework for future researches on the functional roles of lipids in plant photosynthesis.
