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

Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful technique for determining structures of multiple conformational or compositional states of macromolecular assemblies involved in cellular processes. Recent technological developments have led to a leap in the resolution of many cryo-EM data sets, making atomic model building more common for data interpretation. We present a method for calculating differences between two cryo-EM maps or a map and a fitted atomic model. The proposed approach works by scaling the maps using amplitude matching in resolution shells. To account for variability in local resolution of cryo-EM data, we include a procedure for local amplitude scaling that enables appropriate scaling of local map contrast. The approach is implemented as a user-friendly tool in the CCP-EM software package. To obtain clean and interpretable differences, we propose a protocol involving steps to process the input maps and output differences. We demonstrate the utility of the method for identifying conformational and compositional differences including ligands. We also highlight the use of difference maps for evaluating atomic model fit in cryo-EM maps.
