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

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) interact directly with lipid membranes of pathogens and may have the potential to combat antibiotic resistance. Although many AMPs are thought to form toxic oligomeric pores, their interactions within lipid membranes are not well understood. Here, we used native mass spectrometry to measure the incorporation of a range of different AMPs in lipoprotein nanodiscs. We found that the truncation of human LL37 increases the lipid specificity but decreases the specificity of complex formation. We also saw that the reduction of disulfide bonds can have a dramatic effect on the ability of AMPs to interact with lipid bilayers. Finally, by examining a wider range of peptides we discovered that AMPs tend to interact specifically with anionic lipids but form nonspecific complexes with wide oligomeric state distributions. Overall, these data reveal that each AMP has unique behaviors but some common trends apply to many AMPs.
