Explicit correction of severely non-uniform distributions of cryo-EM views.
Article in Acta crystallographica. Section D, Structural biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 quality of three-dimensional macromolecular image reconstruction by cryo electron microscopy (cryo-EM) strongly depends on the number and the quality of the respective two-dimensional projections and on their angular distribution in space. Distributions with one or a few strongly preferred particle orientations may result in maps that are deformed in certain directions. A simple removal of overrepresented views may improve the quality of the reconstructed maps when the level of noise in the two-dimensional (2D) projections is low and the data-set size can afford this removal, but is counterproductive otherwise. Complementarily, giving an increased weight to underrepresented views, or taking multiple copies of them during the reconstruction, may improve the results, naturally, depending on how non-uniform the view distribution is. This work describes the results of three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions using an explicit correction of the number of overrepresented and underrepresented projections for non-uniformly distributed sets. Such correction can be considered as a potential preprocessing, fast and simple, during 3D reconstruction in the image-processing and cryo-EM structure-determination workflow.
