Modeling the Device Behavior of Biological and Synthetic Nanopores with Reduced Models.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Biological ion channels and synthetic nanopores are responsible for passive transport of ions through a membrane between two compartments. Modeling these ionic currents is especially amenable to reduced models because the device functions of these pores, the relation of input parameters (e.g., applied voltage, bath concentrations) and output parameters (e.g., current, rectification, selectivity), are well defined. Reduced models focus on the physics that produces the device functions (i.e., the physics of how inputs become outputs) rather than the atomic/molecular-scale physics inside the pore. Here, we propose four rules of thumb for constructing good reduced models of ion channels and nanopores. They are about (1) the importance of the axial concentration profiles, (2) the importance of the pore charges, (3) choosing the right explicit degrees of freedom, and (4) creating the proper response functions. We provide examples for how each rule of thumb helps in creating a reduced model of device behavior.
