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

The green-light absorbing proteorhodopsin (GPR) is the prototype of bacterial light-driven proton pumps. It has been the focus of continuous research since its discovery 20 years ago and has sparked the development and application of various biophysical techniques. However, a certain controversy and ambiguity about the oligomeric assembly of GPR still remains. We present here the first tag-free purification of pentameric GPR. The combination of ion exchange and size exclusion chromatography yields homogeneous and highly pure untagged pentamers from GPR overexpressing
