Effects of ligand binding on dynamics of fatty acid binding protein and interactions with membranes.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Intracellular transport of fatty acids involves binding of ligands to their carrier fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) and interactions of ligand-free and -bound FABPs with membranes. Previous studies focused on ligand-free FABPs. Here, our amide hydrogen exchange data showed that oleic acid binding to human intestinal FABP (hIFABP) stabilizes the protein, most likely through enhancing the hydrogen-bonding network, and induces rearrangement of sidechains even far away from the ligand binding site. Using NMR relaxation techniques, we found that the ligand binding affects not only conformational exchanges between major and minor states but also the affinity of hIFABP to nanodiscs. Analyses of the relaxation and amide exchange data suggested that two minor native-like states existing in both ligand-free and -bound hIFABPs originate from global "breathing" motions, while one minor native-like state comes from local motions. The amide hydrogen exchange data also indicated that helix αII undergoes local unfolding through which ligands can exit from the binding cavity.
