Effect of Multivalency on Phase-Separated Droplets Consisting of Poly(PR) Dipeptide Repeats and RNA at the Solid/Liquid Interface.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. 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
Dipeptide repeat proteins (DRPs) are considered a significant cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and their liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) formation with other biological molecules has been studied both in vitro and in vivo. The immobilization and wetting of the LLPS droplets on glass surfaces are technically crucial for the measurement with optical microscopy. In this work, we characterized the surface diffusion of LLPS droplets of the DRPs with different lengths to investigate the multivalent effect on the interactions of their LLPS droplets with the glass surface. Using fluorescence microscopy and the single-particle tracking method, we observed that the large multivalency drastically changed the surface behavior of the droplets. The coalescence and wetting of the droplets were accelerated by increasing the multivalency of peptides in the LLPS system. Our findings on the effect of multivalency on interactions between droplets and glass surfaces could provide a new insight to enhance the understanding of LLPS formation and biophysical properties related to the solid/liquid interface.
