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

Virus-like particles (VLPs) from bacteriophage MS2 provide a platform to study protein self-assembly and create engineered systems for drug delivery. Here, we aim to understand the impact of intersubunit interface mutations on the local and global structure and function of MS2-based VLPs. In previous work, our lab identified locally supercharged double mutants [T71K/G73R] that concentrate positive charge at capsid pores, enhancing uptake into mammalian cells. To study the effects of particle size on cellular internalization, we combined these double mutants with a single point mutation [S37P] that was previously reported to switch particle geometry from
