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

Photon absorption by photoreceptors activates hydrolysis of cGMP, which shuts down cGMP-gated channels and decreases free Ca(2+) concentrations in outer segment. Suppression of Ca(2+) influx through the cGMP channel by light activates retinal guanylyl cyclase through guanylyl cyclase activating proteins (GCAPs) and thus expedites photoreceptors recovery from excitation and restores their light sensitivity. GCAP1 and GCAP2, two ubiquitous among vertebrate species isoforms of GCAPs that activate retGC during rod response to light, are myristoylated Ca(2+)/Mg(2+)-binding proteins of the EF-hand superfamily. They consist of one non-metal binding EF-hand-like domain and three other EF-hands, each capable of binding Ca(2+) and Mg(2+). In the metal binding EF-hands of GCAP1, different point mutations can selectively block binding of Ca(2+) or both Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) altogether. Activation of retGC at low Ca(2+) (light adaptation) or its inhibition at high Ca(2+) (dark adaptation) follows a cycle of Ca(2+)/Mg(2+) exchange in GCAPs, rather than release of Ca(2+) and its binding by apo-GCAPs. The Mg(2+) binding in two of the EF-hands controls docking of GCAP1 with retGC1 in the conditions of light adaptation and is essential for activation of retGC. Mg(2+) binding in a C-terminal EF-hand contributes to neither retGC1 docking with the cyclase nor its subsequent activation in the light, but is specifically required for switching the cyclase off in the conditions of dark adaptation by binding Ca(2+). The Mg(2+)/Ca(2+) exchange in GCAP1 and 2 operates within different range of intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations and provides a two-step activation of the cyclase during rod recovery.
