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

Biological liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is driven by dynamic and multivalent interactions, which involves conformational changes and intermolecular assembly/disassembly processes of various biomolecules. To understand the molecular mechanisms of LLPS, kinetic measurements of the intra- and intermolecular reactions are essential. In this review, a time-resolved diffusion technique which has a potential to detect molecular events associated with LLPS is presented. This technique can detect changes in protein conformation and intermolecular interaction (oligomer formation, protein-DNA interaction, and protein-lipid interaction) in time domain, which are difficult to obtain by other methods. After the principle and methods for signal analyses are described in detail, studies on photoreactive molecules (intermolecular interaction between light sensor proteins and its target DNA) and a non-photoreactive molecule (binding and folding reaction of α-synuclein upon mixing with SDS micelle) are presented as typical examples of applications of this unique technique.
