The Evolution of ABC Importers.
Review in Journal of molecular biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Biosciences at Northwestern University. My research program investigates the structure, function, and regulation of membrane proteins, with a particular emphasis on ATP-binding cassette (ABC) importers. ABC transporters are a highly conserved superfamily of transmembrane proteins found across all organisms. These proteins utilize the energy from ATP binding and hydrolysis to transport of a broad array of substrates- including metabolites, lipids, peptides and drugs- across cellular membranes. In this perspective, I discuss how structural and biophysical characterization of ABC importers have significantly advanced our understanding of the mechanisms underlying their transport function. I also highlight the challenges in developing a unified mechanistic model and propose that the remarkable diversity of ABC transporters may necessitate multiple transport mechanisms for a complete picture of how these critical proteins function.
