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

Surface charge patchiness of different charge types can influence the solution behaviours of colloidal particles and globular proteins. Herein, coiled-coil 'bundlemer' nanoparticles that display only a single type of surface charge (SC) are computationally designed to compare their solution behaviours to mixed charge-type (MC) counterparts with both positively and negatively charged side chains. Nematic and columnar liquid crystal phases are discovered in low concentrations of SC particles, indicative of particle end-to-end stacking into columns combined with lateral electrostatic repulsion between columns, while MC particles with the same net charge and particle shape produced only amorphous, soluble aggregates. Similarly, porous lattices are formed in mixtures of SC/MC particles of opposite charges while MC/MC mixtures of opposite charges produce only amorphous aggregates. The lattice structure is inferred with a machine learning optimization approach. The differences between SC and MC particle behaviours directly show the importance of surface electrostatic patchiness.
