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 association of Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels with voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels at the presynaptic active zones of hair cells, photoreceptors, and neurons contributes to rapid repolarization of the membrane after excitation. Ca(2+) channels have been shown to bind to a large set of synaptic proteins, but the proteins interacting with Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels remain unknown. Here, we report that the large-conductance Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel of the chicken's cochlear hair cell interacts with beta-catenin. Yeast two-hybrid assays identified the S10 region of the K(+) channel's alpha-subunit and the ninth armadillo repeat and carboxyl terminus of beta-catenin as necessary for the interaction. An antiserum directed against the alpha-subunit specifically coprecipitated beta-catenin from brain synaptic proteins. beta-Catenin is known to associate with the synaptic protein Lin7/Velis/MALS, whose interaction partner Lin2/CASK also binds voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels. beta-Catenin may therefore provide a physical link between the two types of channels at the presynaptic active zone.
