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 description of the allosteric modification of receptors to affect changes in their function requires a model that considers the effects of the modulator on both agonist affinity and efficacy. A model is presented which describes changes in affinity in terms of the constant alpha (ratio of affinity in the presence vs the absence of modulator) and also the constant xi (ratio of intrinsic efficacy of the agonist in the presence vs absence of modulator). This allows independent effects of both affinity and efficacy and allows the modeling of any change in the dose-response curve to an agonist after treatment with modulator. Examples are given where this type of model can predict effects of modulators that reduce efficacy but actually increase affinity of agonist (i.e. ifenprodil) and also of modulators that block the action of some agonists (the CXCR4 agonist SDF-1alpha by the antagonist AMD3100) but not others for the same receptor (SDF-1alpha peptide fragments RSVM and ASLW).'All models are wrong...but some are useful...'anonymous environmental scientist.
