Comparison of ion selectivities of nitrite channel NirC and water channel aquaporin.

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
nirC gene coding for the nitrite channel of E. coli K12 was cloned into the pET28a vector and expressed in E. coli BL21 cells. 28.5 kDa NirC monomer was purified from membrane components of E. coli. Selectivity of NirC for different ions including nitrite, nitrate, sulfate, formate, and acetate anions, and a divalent cation, magnesium, was compared with that of bacterial aquaporin from Halomonas elongata. Water and ion permeability values were determined by measuring the light scattering rates of proteoliposomes containing NirC and aquaporins during their water loss and gain. NirC shows a selective permeability to nitrite and is more resistant to the entry of other anions as compared to aquaporin. The single channel permeability of NirC for nitrite is about 10-fold that of a single aquaporin channel. Both aquaporin and NirC channel proteins were impermeable to MgCl
