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 mammalian NHE (Na+/H+ exchanger) is a ubiquitously expressed integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH by removing a proton in exchange for an extracellular sodium ion. Of the nine known isoforms of the mammalian NHEs, the first isoform discovered (NHE1) is the most thoroughly characterized. NHE1 is involved in numerous physiological processes in mammals, including regulation of intracellular pH, cell-volume control, cytoskeletal organization, heart disease and cancer. NHE comprises two domains: an N-terminal membrane domain that functions to transport ions, and a C-terminal cytoplasmic regulatory domain that regulates the activity and mediates cytoskeletal interactions. Although the exact mechanism of transport by NHE1 remains elusive, recent studies have identified amino acid residues that are important for NHE function. In addition, progress has been made regarding the elucidation of the structure of NHEs. Specifically, the structure of a single TM (transmembrane) segment from NHE1 has been solved, and the high-resolution structure of the bacterial Na+/H+ antiporter NhaA has recently been elucidated. In this review we discuss what is known about both functional and structural aspects of NHE1. We relate the known structural data for NHE1 to the NhaA structure, where TM IV of NHE1 shows surprising structural similarity with TM IV of NhaA, despite little primary sequence similarity. Further experiments that will be required to fully understand the mechanism of transport and regulation of the NHE1 protein are discussed.
