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

This work completes previous findings and, using cysteine scanning mutagenesis (CSM) and biochemical methods, provides detailed analysis of conformational changes of the S6 domain and C-linker during gating of CNGA1 channels. Specific residues between Phe375 and Val424 were mutated to a cysteine in the CNGA1 and CNGA1(cys-free) background and the effect of intracellular Cd(2+) or cross-linkers of different length in the open and closed state was studied. In the closed state, Cd(2+) ions inhibited mutant channels A406C and Q409C and the longer cross-linker reagent M-4-M inhibited mutant channels A406C(cys-free) and Q409C(cys-free). Cd(2+) ions inhibited mutant channels D413C and Y418C in the open state, both constructed in a CNGA1 and CNGA1(cys-free) background. Our results suggest that, in the closed state, residues from Phe375 to approximately Ala406 form a helical bundle with a three-dimensional (3D) structure similar to those of the KcsA; furthermore, in the open state, residues from Ser399 to Gln409 in homologous subunits move far apart, as expected from the gating in K(+) channels; in contrast, residues from Asp413 to Tyr418 in homologous subunits become closer in the open state.
