1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Molecular crowding, a ubiquitous feature of the cellular environment, has significant implications in the kinetics and equilibrium of biopolymer interactions. In this study, a single charged polypeptide is exposed to competing forces that drive it into a transmembrane protein pore versus forces that pull it outside. Using single-molecule electrophysiology, we provide compelling experimental evidence that the kinetic details of the polypeptide-pore interactions are substantially affected by high concentrations of less-penetrating polyethylene glycols (PEGs). At a polymer concentration above a critical value, the presence of these neutral macromolecular crowders increases the rate constant of association but decreases the rate constant of dissociation, resulting in a stronger polypeptide-pore interaction. Moreover, a larger-molecular weight PEG exhibits a lower rate constant of association but a higher rate constant of dissociation than those values corresponding to a smaller-molecular weight PEG. These outcomes are in accord with a lower diffusion constant of the polypeptide and higher depletion-attraction forces between the polypeptide and transmembrane protein pore under crowding and confinement conditions.
