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

Data emerging from a number of different systems indicate that protein phosphatases are highly regulated and potentially responsive to changes in the levels of intracellular second messengers produced by extracellular stimulation. They may therefore be involved in the regulation of many cell functions. The protein phosphatases in the nervous system have not been well studied. However, a number of neuronal-specific regulators (such as DARPP-32 and G-substrate) exist, and brain protein phosphatases appear to have particularly low specific activity, suggesting that neuronal protein phosphatases possess considerable and unique potential for regulation. Several early events following depolarization or receptor activation appear to involve specific dephosphorylations, indicating that regulation of protein phosphatase activity is important for the control of many neuronal functions. This article reviews the current literature concerning the identification, regulation, and function of serine/threonine protein phosphatases in the brain, with particular emphasis on the regulation of the major protein phosphatases, PP1 and PP2A, and their potential roles in modulating neurotransmitter release and postsynaptic responses.
