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

Voltage-dependent anion channel isoform 2 of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yVDAC2) was believed for many years to be devoid of channel activity. Recently, we isolated yVDAC2 and showed that it exhibits channel-forming activity in the planar lipid bilayer system when in its so-called native form. Here, we describe an alternative strategy for yVDAC2 isolation, through heterologous expression in bacteria and refolding in vitro. Recombinant yVDAC2, like its native form, is able to form voltage-dependent channels. However, some differences between native and recombinant yVDAC2 emerged in terms of voltage dependence and ion selectivity, suggesting that, in this specific case, the recombinant protein might be depleted of post-translational modification(s) that occur in eukaryotic cells.
