Membrane proteins enter the fold.
Review in Current opinion in structural biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Membrane proteins have historically been recalcitrant to biophysical folding studies. However, recent adaptations of methods from the soluble protein folding field have found success in their applications to transmembrane proteins composed of both α-helical and β-barrel conformations. Avoiding aggregation is critical for the success of these experiments. Altogether these studies are leading to discoveries of folding trajectories, foundational stabilizing forces and better-defined endpoints that enable more accurate interpretation of thermodynamic data. Increased information on membrane protein folding in the cell shows that the emerging biophysical principles are largely recapitulated even in the complex biological environment.
