The Allosteric Effect in Antibody-Antigen Recognition.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
We studied the molecular details of the recognition of antigens by the variable domain of their cognate antibodies in as well as those elicited by the constant domains, which do not directly interact with antigens. Such effects are difficult to study experimentally; however, molecular dynamics simulations and subsequent residue interaction network analysis provide insight into the allosteric communication between the antigen-binding CDR region and the constant domain. We performed MD simulations of the complex of Fab and prion-associated peptide in the apo and bound forms and follow the conformational changes in the antibody and cross-talk between its subunits and with antigens. These protocols could be generally applied for studies of other antigens-antibody recognition systems.
