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

We propose two new measures of resolution anisotropy for cryogenic electron microscopy maps: Fourier shell occupancy (FSO), and the Bingham test (BT). FSO varies from 1 to 0, with 1 representing perfect isotropy, and lower values indicating increasing anisotropy. The threshold FSO = 0.5 occurs at Fourier shell correlation resolution. BT is a hypothesis test that complements the FSO to ensure the existence of anisotropy. FSO and BT allow visualization of resolution anisotropy. We illustrate their use with different experimental cryogenic electron microscopy maps.
