Micropolarity governs the structural organization of biomolecular condensates.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Microenvironment is critical to the function of cells and organisms. One example is provided by biomolecular condensates, whose microenvironment can be vastly different from the surrounding cellular environments to engage unique biological functions. How microenvironments of biomolecular condensates affect their structure and function remains unknown. Here, we show that the arrangements and partitioning of biomolecules are dictated by the differences between the micropolarity of each subcompartment. Sufficient difference in micropolarity results in layered structures with the exterior shell presenting a more polar microenvironment than the interior core. Accordingly, micropolarity inversion is accompanied by conversions of the layered structures. These findings demonstrated the central role of the previously overlooked microenvironment in regulating the structural organization and function of membraneless organelles.
