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 vital roles played by NMDA receptors in CNS physiology depend critically on powerful voltage-dependent channel block by external Mg(2+) (Mg(2+)(o)). NMDA receptor channel block by Mg(2+)(o) depends on receptor subunit composition: NR1/2A receptors (receptors composed of NR1 and NR2A subunits) and NR1/2B receptors are more strongly inhibited by Mg(2+)(o) than are NR1/2C or NR1/2D receptors. We investigated the effects of Mg(2+)(o) on single-channel and whole-cell currents recorded from recombinant NR1/2D and NR1/2A receptors expressed in HEK293 and 293T cells. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) Voltage-dependent inhibition by Mg(2+)(o) of whole-cell NR1/2D receptor responses was at least 4-fold weaker than inhibition of NR1/2A receptor responses at all voltages tested. (2) Channel block by Mg(2+)(o) reduced the duration of NR1/2D receptor single-channel openings; this reduction was used to estimate the apparent blocking rate of Mg(2+)(o) (k(+,app)). The k(+,app) for NR1/2D receptors was similar to but moderately slower than the k(+,app) obtained from cortical NMDA receptors composed of NR1, NR2A and NR2B subunits at all voltages tested. (3) Mg(2+)(o) blocking events induced an additional component in the closed-duration distribution; this component was used to estimate the apparent unblocking rate of Mg(2+)(o) (k(-,app)). The k(-,app) for NR1/2D receptors was much faster than the k(-,app) for cortical receptors at all voltages tested. The voltage-dependence of the k(-,app) of NR1/2D and cortical receptors differed in a manner that suggested that Mg(2+)(o) may permeate NR1/2D receptors more easily than cortical receptors. (4) Mg(2+)(o) inhibits NR1/2D receptors less effectively than cortical receptors chiefly because Mg(2+)(o) unbinds much more rapidly from NR1/2D receptors.
