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

A plethora of key biological events occur at the cellular membrane where the large spatiotemporal scales necessitate dimensionality reduction or coarse-graining approaches over conventional all-atom molecular dynamics simulation. Constructing coarse-grained descriptions of membranes systematically from statistical mechanical principles has largely remained challenging due to the necessity of capturing amphipathic self-assembling behavior in coarse-grained models. We show that bottom-up coarse-grained lipid models can possess metastable morphological behavior and that this potential metastability has ramifications for accurate development and training. We in turn develop a training algorithm which evades metastability issues by linking model training to self-assembling behavior, and demonstrate its robustness via construction of solvent-free coarse-grained models of various phospholipid membranes, including lipid species such as phosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylserines, sphingolipids, and cholesterol. The resulting coarse-grained lipid models are orders of magnitude faster than their atomistic counterparts while retaining structural fidelity and constitute a promising direction for the development of coarse-grained models of realistic cell membranes.
