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

Members of the OSCA/TMEM63 family are mechanically activated ion channels and structures of some OSCA members have revealed the architecture of these channels and structural features that are potentially involved in mechanosensation. However, these structures are all in a similar state and information about the motion of different elements of the structure is limited, preventing a deeper understanding of how these channels work. Here, we used cryoelectron microscopy to determine high-resolution structures of Arabidopsis thaliana OSCA1.2 and OSCA2.3 in peptidiscs. The structure of OSCA1.2 matches previous structures of the same protein in different environments. Yet, in OSCA2.3, the TM6a-TM7 linker adopts a different conformation that constricts the pore on its cytoplasmic side. Furthermore, coevolutionary sequence analysis uncovered a conserved interaction between the TM6a-TM7 linker and the beam-like domain (BLD). Our results reveal conformational heterogeneity and differences in conserved interactions between the TMD and BLD among members of the OSCA family.
