Protocol to analyze lipid asymmetry in the plasma membrane.
Article in STAR protocols, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The plasma membrane containing cholesterol exhibits phospholipid asymmetry, with phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin enriched in its outer leaflet and phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) on the cytoplasmic side. We herein describe steps for bacterial expression of recombinant proteins that bind to membrane lipids, followed by affinity purification. Using fluorescence-labeled phospholipid analogs, we further detail the assay to detect flippase activity, which maintains the single-sided distribution of PtdSer and PtdEtn, in mammalian cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Segawa et al. (2021).
