Nonlinear kinetics of ferritin adsorption.
Article in Biophysical journal, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The adsorption of ferritin at a methylized quartz surface was measured with off-null ellipsometry and transmission electron microscopy. An initial lag-phase was seen, followed by an accelerating adsorption leading to mass transport limitation of the reaction. The rate of adsorption then decreased at a surface concentration far below monolayer coverage, and a continuously decreasing rate of binding was seen. The slope of the binding rate was linear with the logarithm of time (fractal kinetics). The adsorbed ferritin molecules were distributed in clusters as seen by transmission electron microscopy. Clusters grown during the mass transport limited adsorption had crystalline structure at short range and low fractal dimensions (df = 0.89) over long range. Clusters grown during adsorption with fractal kinetics showed random structure at short range and a high fractal dimension df = 1.86 over all ranges. These findings indicate some new important mechanisms responsible for the complex kinetics of macromolecular reactions at solid-liquid interfaces. The results are discussed in relation to recently developed theories of self-organized criticality.
