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

KcsA is a tetrameric potassium channel formed out of four identical monomeric subunits used as a standard model for selective potassium transport and pH-dependent gating. Large conformational changes are reported for tetramer and monomer upon gating, and the response of the monomer being controversial with the two major studies partially contradicting each other. KcsA was analyzed as functional tetramers embedded in liposomes and as monomer subunits with confocal Raman microscopy under physiological conditions for the active and the closed channel state, using 532 nm excitation to avoid introducing conformational changes during the measurement. Channel function was confirmed using liposome flux assay. While the classic fingerprint region below 1800 rel. cm
