1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aquaporins are tetrameric integral membrane proteins that act as water channels, and can also permeabilize membranes to other solutes. The monomer appears to be the functional form despite all aquaporins being organized as tetramers, which therefore must provide a clear functional advantage. In addition to this quaternary organization, some aquaporins can act as adhesion molecules in membrane junctions, when tetramers located in opposing membranes interact via their extracellular domains. These stacked forms have been observed in a range of aquaporins, whether using lipidic membrane environments, in electron crystallography, or using detergent micelles, in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). In the latter technique, structural studies can be performed when the aquaporin is reconstituted into nanodiscs of lipids that are surrounded by a protein scaffold. During attempts to study
