Separating distinct structures of multiple macromolecular assemblies from cryo-EM projections.
Article in Journal of structural biology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Single particle analysis for structure determination in cryo-electron microscopy is traditionally applied to samples purified to near homogeneity as current reconstruction algorithms are not designed to handle heterogeneous mixtures of structures from many distinct macromolecular complexes. We extend on long established methods and demonstrate that relating two-dimensional projection images by their common lines in a graphical framework is sufficient for partitioning distinct protein and multiprotein complexes within the same data set. The feasibility of this approach is first demonstrated on a large set of synthetic reprojections from 35 unique macromolecular structures spanning a mass range of hundreds to thousands of kilodaltons. We then apply our algorithm on cryo-EM data collected from a mixture of five protein complexes and use existing methods to solve multiple three-dimensional structures ab initio. Incorporating methods to sort single particle cryo-EM data from extremely heterogeneous mixtures will alleviate the need for stringent purification and pave the way toward investigation of samples containing many unique structures.
