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

Cell penetrating peptide transportan 10 and antimicrobial peptide melittin formed submicron pores in the lipid membranes of vesicles which are explained by the leakage of water-soluble fluorescent probes from the inside of vesicles to the outside. It is hypothesized that these submicron pores induce submicron discontinuities in the membranes. Considering this hypothesis, a technique has developed to locate the submicron discontinuities in the membranes of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) using ImageJ. In this technique, at first the edges of membrane of a 'single GUV' are detected and then these edges are used to locate the submicron discontinuities. Two continuous rings are observed after applying the ImageJ in GUVs which indicated the edges of membrane. In contrast, the submicron discontinuations are detected at the edges of transportan 10 and melittin induced pore formed membranes. This investigation might be helpful for the elucidation of mechanism of the peptide-induced pore formation in the membranes of vesicles.
