The Effect of Cholesterol in SOPC Lipid Bilayers at Low Temperatures.
Article in Membranes, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
We study the behavior of lipid bilayers composed of SOPC (1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) with different concentrations of cholesterol, ranging from 10 mol% to 50 mol% at 273 K. To this end, we carry out extensive atomistic molecular dynamic simulations with the aid of the Slipid force field aiming at computing basic bilayer parameters, as well as thermodynamic properties and structural characteristics. The obtained results are compared to available relevant experimental data and the outcome of atomistic simulations performed on bilayers composed of analogous phospholipids. Our results show a good quantitative, as well as qualitative, agreement with the main trends associated with the concentration increase in cholesterol. Moreover, it comes out that a change in the behavior of the bilayer is brought about at a concentration of about 30 mol% cholesterol. At this very concentration, some of the bilayer properties are found to exhibit a saturation and a significant long-range ordering of the lipid molecules in the membrane shows up.
