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

Nonequilibrium simulation protocols based on shear deformations are applied to determine the surface viscosity and interleaflet friction of lipid bilayers. At high shear rates, a non-Newtonian shear thinning regime is observed, but lower shear rates yield a Newtonian plateau and results that are consistent with equilibrium measurements based on fluctuation-dissipation theorems. Application to all-atom bilayers modeled with the CHARMM36 parameter set yields values for the surface viscosity that are consistent with microscopic measurements based on membrane protein diffusion but are approximately 10 times lower than more macroscopic experimental measurements. The interleaflet friction is about 10 times lower than experimental measurements. Trends across different lipids, temperatures, and ternary liquid-disordered phase mixtures produce results that are consistent with experimental diffusion constants. Application of the protocol to the liquid-ordered phase fails to yield a Newtonian plateau, suggesting more complex rheology.
