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

Transmembrane currents in ligand-gated ion channels are calculated in a nonstationary, chemically open whole cell system or patch of a membrane. The model is lyotropic in the sense that dynamics, and parameters such as the ligand concentration for half-maximal response (scale of response), and threshold for firing, such as in neurons, become nonlinear functions of the reactant concentrations. The derived total currents fit recorded data significantly better than those derived from mass action, Ising, and other stationary type models, in which the derived response is often displaced from the assessed response by several orders in the ligand concentration. Also, the derived slope of response is in perfect agreement with the values assessed.
