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

Human concentrative nucleoside transporter 1 (hCNT1) mediates active transport of nucleosides and anticancer and antiviral nucleoside drugs across cell membranes by coupling influx to the movement of Na(+) down its electrochemical gradient. The two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique was used to measure steady-state and presteady-state currents of recombinant hCNT1 produced in Xenopus oocytes. Transport was electrogenic, phloridzin sensitive and specific for pyrimidine nucleosides and adenosine. Nucleoside analogues that induced inwardly directed Na(+) currents included the anticancer drugs 5-fluorouridine, 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine, cladribine and cytarabine, the antiviral drugs zidovudine and zalcitabine, and the novel thymidine mimics 1-(2-deoxy-beta-d-ribofuranosyl)-2,4-difluoro-5-methylbenzene and 1-(2-deoxy-beta-d-ribofuranosyl)-2,4-difluoro-5-iodobenzene. Apparent K(m) values for 5-fluorouridine, 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine and zidovudine were 18, 15 and 450 microm, respectively. hCNT1 was Na(+) specific, and the kinetics of steady-state uridine-evoked Na(+) currents were consistent with an ordered simultaneous transport model in which Na(+) binds first followed by uridine. Membrane potential influenced both ion binding and carrier translocation. The Na(+)-nucleoside coupling stoichiometry, determined directly by comparing the uridine-induced inward charge movement to [(14)C]uridine uptake was 1: 1. hCNT1 presteady-state currents were used to determine the fraction of the membrane field sensed by Na(+) (61%), the valency of the movable charge (-0.81) and the average number of transporters present in the oocyte plasma membrane (6.8 x 10(10) per cell). The hCNT1 turnover rate at -50 mV was 9.6 molecules of uridine transported per second.
