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

Proteins offer a molecular design space to create bespoke ligands for the separation of critical metals like rare earth elements (REs). However, data-intensive approaches to tune metalloprotein selectivity are constrained by the low-throughput nature of existing characterization methods. Here we invented an assay called 'SpyTag-Catcher Immobilization of Lanmodulin for Assaying Metal-Binding Selectivity' (SpyCI-LAMBS) to measure metalloprotein selectivity en masse. This 96-format workflow was used to study the selectivity of 621 lanmodulin (LanM) orthologs for 15 REs, revealing eight distinct selectivity profiles based on sequence-to-function analyses. We discovered >200 LanMs with stronger selectivity against low-value La
