Toward peptide-based bioelectronics: reductionist design of conductive pili mimetics.
Article in Bioelectronics in medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Proteins and peptides possess inherent properties which can benefit medical devices that interact with electro-responsive tissues. However, proteinaceous materials are typically electrically insulating and hence are not suitable to be utilized as conductive elements in electromedical and other bio-interfacing devices. The discovery of intrinsic electrical conductivity in bacterial protein nanofibers, termed e-pili, could give rise to mimetic reductionist design and thus provide an opportunity to improve the function of existing electromedical devices. In this Special Report we review key aspects concerning the properties of e-pili and present the ongoing effort toward the design of mimetic conductive nanostructures. We highlight the advantages of using self-assembling peptides as building blocks for this purpose and discuss the prospect of the envisioned mimetic nanostructures.
