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

The physical interaction between the presynaptic vesicle release complex and the large cytoplasmic region linking domains II and III of N-type (Ca(v)2.2) calcium channel alpha(1)B subunits is considered to be of fundamental importance for efficient neurotransmission. By PCR analysis of human brain cDNA libraries and IMR32 cell mRNA, we have isolated novel N-type channel variants, termed Ca(v)2.2-Delta1 and Delta2, which lack large parts of the domain II-III linker region, including the synaptic protein interaction site. They appear to be widely expressed across the human CNS as indicated by RNase protection assays. When expressed in tsA-201 cells, both novel variants formed barium-permeable channels with voltage dependences and kinetics for activation that were similar to those observed with the full-length channel. All three channel types exhibited the hallmarks of prepulse facilitation, which interestingly occurred independently of G-protein betagamma subunits. By contrast, the voltage dependence of steady-state inactivation seen with both Delta1 and Delta2 channels was shifted toward more depolarized potentials, and recovery from inactivation of Delta1 and Delta2 channels occurred more rapidly than that of the full-length channel. Moreover, the Delta1 channel was dramatically less sensitive to both omega-conotoxin MVIIA and GVIA than either the Delta2 variant or the full-length construct. Finally, the domain II-III linker region of neither variant was able to effectively bind syntaxin in vitro. These results suggest that the structure of the II-III linker region is an important determinant of N-type channel function and pharmacology. The lack of syntaxin binding hints at a unique physiological function of these channels.
