Quantitative analysis of a fully generalized four-state kinetic scheme.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
To describe the macroscopic behavior of many ion channels, at a minimum a four-state kinetic scheme is needed to provide for three processes: a delay in activation development, the activation process, and inactivation. I present here an analytical solution for a fully generalized four-state kinetic scheme in which every state can transit to every other state and any initial conditions can be specified. The solution describes the time courses of the probabilities of occupancy of each state during a step change in the rate constants of the scheme and includes closed-form expressions for the relaxation time constants and steady-state probabilities of occupancy as functions of the rate constants. Solutions for several relevant special cases are also included along with demonstrations that the general solution yields the correct behavior for several reduced or special cases where the result is independently known.
