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

Time-resolved fluorescence and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to examine how two amino acids, L-phenylalanine (L-PA) and N-acetyl-DL-tryptophan (NAT), affect the temperature-dependent membrane affinity of two structurally similar coumarin solutes for 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) vesicles. The 7-aminocoumarin solutes, coumarin 151 (C151) and coumarin 152 (C152), differ in their substitution at amine position-C151 is a primary amine, and C152 is a tertiary amine-and both solutes show different tendencies to associate with lipid bilayers consistent with differences in their respective log-P-values. Adding L-PA to the DPPC vesicle solution did not change C151's propensity to remain freely solvated in aqueous solution, but C152 showed a greater tendency to partition into the hydrophobic bilayer interior at temperatures below DPPC's gel-liquid crystalline transition temperature (T
