The hidden world of membrane microproteins.
Review in Experimental cell research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 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
Proteins are critical components of biological membranes and play key roles in many essential cellular processes. Membrane proteins are a structurally and functionally diverse family of proteins that have recently expanded to include a number of newly discovered tiny proteins called microproteins, or micropeptides. These microproteins are generated from small open reading frames, which produce protein products that are less than 100 amino acids in length. While not all microproteins are membrane proteins, this review will focus specifically on this subclass to highlight some of the important biological activities that have been ascribed to these molecules and to emphasize their promise as exciting new players in membrane biology.
