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

Within this chapter, we focus on explaining and introducing latest light scattering techniques as dynamic light scattering (DLS) applied to score and optimize biomolecular solutions prior to crystallization experiments. DLS is today the most common and noninvasive method used to obtain information about the dimensions of monomeric or oligomeric macromolecules by observing their Brownian motion. It requires only a relatively small amount of sample and can be done in various environments. Analyzing the homogeneity of a biomolecular solution at different physiochemical conditions, such as concentrations and pH values, and also over time, before outlining crystallization experiments provides most valuable information to increase the success rate of such experiments to obtain X-ray-suitable crystals. Further, light scattering methods can analyze particle size distributions in real time and optionally also in flow mode. The intensity pattern of light scattered by particles in solution is correlated with itself within short time intervals to determine the autocorrelation function, which allows a calculation of the particle diffusion constant, providing the value of the hydrodynamic radii (R
